RILA's Signature Programs, Events, & Activities

Our Signature Programs | The work that drives RILA

RILA’s programs are rooted in community, history, and creative expression. Together, they reflect how we honor Latino stories past and present—through place-based learning like Barrio Tours and Museo del Barrio, community-centered archives and oral histories in Nuestras Raíces, recognition of literary voices through the Latino Books Award, storytelling and performance with Teatro del Pueblo, and year-round connection and advocacy through the Latinx Artists Network. Whether you’re discovering RILA for the first time or exploring how our work creates lasting cultural impact, these programs offer a clear picture of how art, history, and community come together at the heart of everything we do.
