The Latinx Cultural Celebration is designed to pay tribute to the generations of LatinX Americans who have positively affected our historical, political, economic, and/or social context in the United States. The goal of the cultural celebration is to bring the university and Tallahassee communities together to enhance our cultural awareness, increase our knowledge of significant contributions, and share untold stories of the Latinx community. The celebration takes place annually during Hispanic Heritage Month which is September 15-October 15. 

This year’s celebration is particularly important because 2021 marks the 100th Anniversary of the first documented LatinX/Hispanic graduates from Florida State.

We invite you to join us in celebrating this anniversary by making a contribution to the Supporting Hispanic/Latinx Students for 100 Years campaign by donating increments of 100 dollars to celebrate 100 years of LatinX/Hispanic excellence at FSU. Donations collected as part of this campaign will be used to provide scholarships to LatinX/Hispanic students at the undergraduate and graduate level.
