A Respected & Impactful

     Voice for 25+ Years     

The National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts is dedicated to promoting and advancing the presence of Latino students, artists and storytellers in the entertainment and media industries.

We work to cultivate the next generation of Latino talent by providing scholarships, mentorship, and networking opportunities.

We engage in advocacy work across the government and serve as the premier connector of the entertainment and media industries and federal government and politics.

We lead public education and outreach to raise awareness of the vital contributions that Latino creators make to our shared cultural heritage.

Through these efforts, we strive to ensure that the media and arts reflect the rich diversity of our society and foster a more equitable and inclusive future for all.
