What’s next for Hola Cultura?
Neighborhood Murals | Passing on Knowledge: We’re working to turn our murals research into D.C.’s first Latino murals tour. Would you like to get involved?
Here’s how you can help: If you have photos or memories of Latino murals created in the District, we’d love to speak with you. We are also looking for volunteers interested in serving as the tour guides next year, when we launch the tour. Don’t have time to volunteer? We are honored by the financial support we receive. Make a tax-deductible donation today. It’s another important way to help.
