Junta Hispana is an event for the whole family where you will enjoy Latino culture in every sense of the word. From food to dancing to music to traditional customs from Bolivia, Panama, Chile, Puerto Rico and Paraguay to name a few. Best of all is free admission.
They offer raffles, free samples from the sponsors of the event like Rite Aid. You can purchase typical items from different countries, likes hats, bracelets, necklaces, etc. For the children, Dora the Explorer will be there. This is all according to their website. I'm posting their video below so you can get a better sense of what you will be seeing. I'm having trouble with it so I'm hoping it will work. If not you can always visit their webpage.

Update: For some reason the Junta Hispana video doesn't want to work on my blog so I have no choice but to remove it. Visit the Junta Hispana webpage to see it.
