A program of the Library, the Latino Civic Association of Tompkins County, The Latin American and Latino Studies programs at Cornell University and Senoritas Latinas Unidas, Inc., CULTURA! is directed by Carolina Osorio Gill and features guest storytellers who offer historic, folkloric or personal stories about a particular Latin American country.

CULTURA! programs will be held on February 25, March 3, March 10, March 24 and March 31. There will be no CULTURA! Program on March 17.

All storytelling sessions are free and open to the public and include a corresponding craft. CULTURA! programs will be held from 1:30 to 3:00 PM in the Library’s Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

The storytelling series is only one component of the CULTURA! program, which is designed to promote Latino and Latin American culture through easily-accessible, free and low-cost, arts-based educational experiences.
