About the organization

The National Association of Latino Arts and Cultures (NALAC) was founded in 1989 as a service organization dedicated to the promotion, advancement, and preservation of Latino artistic and cultural expression across the United States and Puerto Rico. Emerging from a grassroots need for representation and resources, NALAC has evolved into a vital national network that supports artists, cultural workers, and organizations through grants, professional development, and advocacy. Its core mission is to cultivate a thriving ecosystem for Latino arts by providing funding, convening, and capacity-building opportunities that honor diverse cultural traditions while fostering contemporary innovation.
