The Puerto Rican Cultural Center (PRCC) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) whose mission is to promote cultural awareness and pride through performing arts programs and cultural events based in Puerto Rican folklore, history, and living traditions -- dance, music, community theater, ancestral fighting arts, and Indigenous Taino heritage. It’s the only center in Texas and the Southwest affiliated with the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture (ICP) for ongoing programming that cannot otherwise be experienced in this region. The Celebrando Heritage project is a triple-header of events sponsored in part by H-E-B, and with grant support from the National Endowment for the Arts, Texas Commission on the Arts, and Humanities Texas, the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities! Our Season is additionally sponsored in part by the City of Austin Economic Development Department.
