Centro Cultural Hispano de San Marcos and LULAC Council 654 will host the inauguration of the San Marcos Hispanic Heritage Exhibit.
The walk will take place on Saturday, September 17 at 10 a.m. at the Centro Cultural Hispano de San Marcos and will end at the Hays County Historic Courthouse. The event will serve as a kickoff event for Hispanic Heritage Month.
Centro and LULAC said the event will bring attention to the vibrant countries of Latin America and bring awareness to the diversity of Hispanic heritage in the local community.
Flags of Latin American countries represented during Hispanic Heritage Month will be displayed during the walk. Music, food and vendors will gather at the Hays County Historic Courthouse. Proceeds from the event will go towards scholarships for local students to further their education.
Centro and LULAC encourage businesses and organizations to display a display banner during Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs from September 15th to October 15th. For more information about the event, visit the HispanicHeritageExhibitionWalk Instagram and Facebook page.
