Arts Advocacy
MHC is an active advocate for social justice, access to education and fair treatment for Latinos and diverse communities in the region and nationally. Our work as presenters and producers of cultural events leverages the concert hall, stage, arena and other performing arts venues to tell the story and heritage of Latino contributions to American life that is accurate, relevant and positive. We use new media to take our message from the stage to the internet and beyond. From the halls of Congress, to the streets of San Jose , Phoenix and other major cities, MHC communicates the needs of our community, the beauty of our common heritage and the possibility of our shared destiny.
