Celebrate the recipients of the 37th Hispanic Heritage Awards. The evening commemorating Hispanic Heritage Month includes performances and appearances by some of the country's most celebrated Hispanic artists and visionaries, including designer Carolina Herrera, Beautyblender creator Rea Ann Silva, and NBA legend Carmelo Anthony.
“We are privileged to once again partner with PBS, Nationwide, the Kennedy Center, and all of our sponsors to celebrate and share the Latino community’s accomplishments, cultural pride and great promise not just in the theatre but with the entire country and beyond through the broadcast,” said Antonio Tijerino, President and CEO of the Hispanic Heritage Foundation. “The PBS broadcast will ensure our inspiring stories will be heard and seen broadly and foment a greater understanding and appreciation of the Latino community – past, present, and future.”
The HHAs, supported by 40 national Hispanic-serving institutions, were established by The White House in 1988 to commemorate the creation of Hispanic Heritage Month in America and broadcast on PBS. The Awards are commonly known as “America’s Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration.”
