Rhode Island Latino Arts, in collaboration with Rhode Island Food Fights, will celebrate Latino Heritage Month from September 15-October 15, 2015 with a month-long culinary exhibition event, Taco Mania. For the cost of a book of tickets or a passport, patrons will have to opportunity to visit participating venues and receive two tacos. As of this printing, twelve restaurants are already involved, with a list to be finalized by July 1. Founded as The Hispanic Heritage Committee Rhode Island in 1988 by Marta V. MartÃnez, the organization has sponsored Hispanic heritage celebrations since 1989 while promoting pride in the immigrant population, encouraging second generation engagement in Latino heritage, and reaching out to non-Latinos to foster understanding of major contributions of their neighbors. In 2013, the organization was re-named Rhode Island Latino Arts in celebration of its twenty-fifth anniversary.
