Discover America’s untold stories of Latinx entrepreneurs, creators, and musicians! Our Hispanic and Latinx Heritage virtual event is a fun and engaging way for virtual groups to celebrate and learn together. Don’t miss out – Hispanic Heritage Month is from September 15 to October 15 each year!

During this session, you’ll trace the impact of Hispanic and Latinx history from the 1500s to the present day. For instance, did you know that Spanish was the first European language spoken in the United States colonies?

Additionally, this virtual Hispanic Heritage Month event focuses on the importance of Latin music in American culture. From the introduction of the guitar to modern pop icons, Latinx artists have strongly influenced music throughout history and today.

Your experience will be led by two knowledgeable and personable in-studio guides, as well as two on-location guides. Specifically, your team will be inspired by visits to St. Augustine, Florida, and Austin, Texas.

In St. Augustine, your team will virtually travel to the oldest Hispanic community in the country. Then, virtually trek the Tejano Walking Trails in Austin, including the Tejano Music Legends Trail.

Best of all, this experience is NOT a lecture. Instead, your interactive session will engage your group as you honor the cultures and contributions of Hispanic people throughout American history.
