At @affluenthispanic Philanthropies we celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month.
•
Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.
•
The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402.
•
The day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of independence for Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September 18, respectively. Also, Columbus Day or Día de la Raza, which is October 12, falls within this 30 day period.

Univisionarios rinde homenaje a la @cheflorena Gar

Univisionarios rinde homenaje a la @cheflorena García, primera latina con restaurante en Miami, Las Vegas y Aspen.
•
En @affluenthispanic Affluent Hispanic Philanthropies nos sentimos orgullosos de la Chef Lorena García, empresaria, personalidad de televisión internacional, autora y filántropa, miembro notable y cabeza de nuestro programa “Chefs en Filantropía” a nivel nacional.
•
Univisionarios honra a hispanos estadounidenses excepcionales y sus contribuciones a sus comunidades y al mundo. No se trata solamente de una lista anual de hispanos más influyentes: es un homenaje a los valores y principios que representan y que los convierten en un modelo para futuras generaciones.
•
El reino de Lorena García es el de los sabores, las texturas y los emplatados. Comenzó a estudiar leyes pero, por suerte para sus comensales, decidió cambiarlas por deliciosas arepas, donas, bandejas paisas, bistecs jugosos, chilaquiles y dulces tres leches.
•
Se maneja con soltura en una cocina y en un estudio de televisión. Es una habitual de los programas y concursos para descubrir a cocineros talentosos y ha llevado @chicarestaurants, su firma de restaurantes, a Miami, Las Vegas y Aspen, revolucionando la cocina hispana para hacerla sana y accesible. Su programa “Big Chef, Little Chef” instruye a niños y a familias en los buenos hábitos alimentarios.
•
De su infancia en Caracas recuerda que su madre le enseñó “el valor del esfuerzo y la preparación”. En su bolso nunca faltan unas tarjetas de visita, unas curitas y su labial.
•
Conoce su historia en univisionarios.com y en ViX.

“Pero las lecciones mas importantes las aprendí de otras mujeres, y por ellas escribí lo que escribí y canté lo que canté”.
•
“Y hay una en especial que me ha inspirado más que nadie, mi madre Nidia Ripoll. Mami, a pesar de las dificultades que has enfrentado este año, sigues de pie con tu amor sin límites y tu resiliencia. Para mí, mami, tú has sido mi mujer del año. Así que este reconocimiento va para ti y va también para mis amigas que me han sostenido y me sostienen cuando flaquean mis piernas”.
•
“Y para todas las madres solteras que defienden y protegen a sus hijos como leonas. Claudia, amiga mía, tú eres una de ellas”.
•
“Gracias por este reconocimiento y lo comparto con todas esas mujeres increíbles a las que yo llamo “hermanas” que tanto me han enseñado porque conocen su vulnerabilidad, pero también su fuerza”.

At @affluenthispanic Philanthropies, we take immen

At @affluenthispanic Philanthropies, we take immense pride in the recent achievements of the exceptionally talented artist @luisromeroart. Hailing from Barranquilla, Colombia, Luis Romero's remarkable career began at a young age, drawing inspiration from his Caribbean roots.
•
He has successfully obtained his degree with high honors from the certified art program with a focus on painting at The Art Students League of New York (@aslnyc), where he excelled as a scholarship recipient. Alongside his journalism background, Luis also completed the sculpture program at the District School of Art in Barranquilla, showcasing his multifaceted talent.
•
Luis Romero's artistic style is a harmonious blend of figuration and abstraction. His paintings, sculptures, and print-makings are characterized by intense and captivating colors reminiscent of the Caribbean. Abstract lines and shapes coalesce to form realistic figures within geometric abstract spaces across multiple planes. This technique intrigues the viewer, provoking speculation about the spatial position of each character.
•
His extraordinary works have been showcased in both individual and collective exhibitions across various cities in Colombia, Cuba, Germany, Switzerland, and the United States. Notable highlights include being a Merit Scholarship Winner at @aslnyc, participating in The Flag Project at the Rockefeller Center in New York, and being featured in the XXXVIII Caribbean International Festival in Cuba, among others.
•
Luis Romero's talent has been duly recognized with prestigious awards, including the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Blake Scholarship and recognition for his outstanding achievements in drawing, painting, color, design, and composition at @aslnyc. His artwork titled "La Luz del Carnaval" has also earned a well-deserved place in the permanent collection of the Carnival Museum in Barranquilla, Colombia.
•
Join us in celebrating the awe-inspiring artistic journey of Luis Romero. Let's applaud his unwavering commitment to his craft and his ability to showcase the beauty and vibrancy of his Colombian heritage through his remarkable art.
