About the Event: Students joined ISLA and Latinx Heritage Month for A Trip Around Las Américas!  and “traveled” to countries like Mexico, Ecuador, and the Dominican Republic to learn more about these countries in Latin America and the Caribbean region. They learned the similarities that bind the very varied countries of this region deeply together,  through looking at their culture, customs, traditions, food, and music to understand what makes these countries similar and unique. For this event, we have partnered with MexiCulture and ASEDOM.
