Taller Boricua, founded in 1969, is a non-profit arts organization that has been a vital advocate for East Harlem artists and residents. Through providing work and gallery space, curating exhibits and performances, and conducting in-school arts education programs, Taller Boricua has played a significant role in enhancing the cultural and social well-being of the Puerto Rican community in New York City.
With a mission to establish a cultural and educational center, Taller Boricua has been a catalyst for traditional and new perspectives in the arts. Its historic engagement with the Young Lords Party and its involvement in the Nuyorican movement have made it a platform for socially political, cultural, and poetic expression. Now in its 51st year, Taller Boricua continues to draw attention to unrepresented and marginalized artists, making a lasting impact on the artistic landscape of East Harlem and beyond.
