September is Hispanic Heritage Month and BCC is celebrating it with members of our Hispanic community!
On Wednesday, September 16th, the Caminos program kicked off BCC’s “Celebración del Mes de la Herencia Hispana” with Hispanic Heritage display tables and a carryout cuisine sampling.
Through the sights, sounds, and flavors of Latin America, the Caminos program gave the youth and staff of the Baltimore Campus a glimpse of the diverse traditions of Latinx culture.
Hispanic Heritage Month has been officially recognized in the United States since 1968. The celebration lasts from September 15th until October 15th. September 15th is significant because it is the anniversary of independence for various Latin American countries including Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September18, respectively.
Thank you to our Caminos program team and everyone who came out to celebrate!
