Latinx Heritage Month

¡Celebremos juntos!

Join us in celebrating Latinx Heritage Month, a vibrant tribute to the invaluable contributions of the Latinx community. This year our theme at CLC is In Unity: Seguimos Prosperando/We Continue to Thrive.

An array of fun activities, performances, engaging workshops and heartfelt dialogues that highlight the resilience, creativity and spirit of Latinx culture at the Grayslake, Lakeshore and Southlake campuses.

From September 15 to October 15, immerse yourself in music, dance, art and storytelling that honors the diverse traditions and histories of Latin American countries.

Whether you're discovering new rhythms or exploring the profound stories of Latinx pioneers, this month is a time to come together and celebrate the beauty of Latinx heritage and its impact on our community.
