Hispanic Heritage Month is a tribute to the rich contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities, celebrated annually from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15.
Historical Roots
What was initially a week-long observance established as Hispanic Heritage Week by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1968 has evolved into a month-long celebration thanks to President Ronald Reagan in 1988. The celebration spans September and October, encompassing significant historical events like the Mexican War of Independence and 'Día de la Raza'.
Celebratory Activities
Today, celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month involves a diverse range of activities such as cultural festivals, volunteering, and exploring Latino culture through food, books, and products. It's a time to reflect on and honor the vibrant heritage and influence of Hispanic and Latino communities in shaping our society.
