The Latinidades Festival features six mainstage productions and various second-stage performances spanning theatre, dance, music, and poetry to highlight diverse Latin American voices. The 2025 lineup includes the legendary Chicano theatre of the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center (San Antonio), Venezuelan artists from Chicago, and a play written and directed by one of Latin America’s most important writers, Arístides Vargas. Additional performances will showcase artists from Spain, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Los Angeles, San Antonio, and Dallas’s own creative community. Returning this year is the 2nd Latinidades Arts Symposium: How Our Arts Will Thrive in Times of Change. Designed to support both independent artists and arts organizations, the Symposium will explore how the arts can thrive during turbulent times, with emphasis on intergenerational connections, mentorship, and community building. Featured topics include trends in arts funding, AI and the arts, and collective dreaming toward new possibilities. For a full schedule of events, go to the festival website.
