Hispanic Hartford
 

Welcome to “Hispanic Hartford,” a virtual space created by Trinity College students in Hispanic Studies and the staff of Trinfo Café. Hispanic Hartford seeks to explore Latino intellectualism, creativity, activism, and history in the Hartford region. Our two main purposes are:

1) to allow members (and admirers) of the Latino Hartford community from within and without academic, artistic, and professional environments to come together to share a cyberspace. It is here that Hartford students and long-term residents can pass through the ivied gates of local universities, cross the thresholds of business and service agency doors, and enter into galleries and theaters, in order to learn from each other and communally celebrate the rich Latino cultures of Hartford. In addition, this website will provide an interface between the intellectual engagement of the academic community with Hispanics in Hartford and the intellectual engagement of the Hartford Hispanic community with itself.

2) This website serves to offer newly arrived local Latinos an orientation to helping agencies, intellectual activities, and other Hartford services in Spanish and in English.

There is a wide array of services and institutions that work with and for Latinos, and this site helps to highlight and clarify what they are and what they do.

“Hispanic Hartford” is a work-in-progress that continues to grow and change. We encourage you to email us your comments and to participate in its shaping.
