PLASA Sabrosura is an annual event that kicks off the Latine Heritage Month aimed at creating transparency, visibility, and recognition of Latines on campus and Latine culture. Originally recognized as Hispanic Heritage Month, Latine Heritage Month runs from September 15 to October 15 with the intention to create events that aim to recognize and celebrate the contributions, culture, and history of Latino Americans while educating people about the rich cultural traditions and history of these communities. PLASA Sabrosura is a celebratory event that introduces the various Latines dishes and customs while offering a space for Latines to pride themselves on their heritage and backgrounds. This year, PLASA Sabrosura will take place september 21, 2024 at Cannon Green from 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM

PLASA Sabrosura will open up with their annual “Celebrando mi bandera” at 12:15 PM, a march that will take Latines from Nassau Gates to Cannon Green. The event also hosts the annual and well anticipated photoshoot “La Excelencia Latina” that captures Latines with their associated flags to display the diversity and beauty of Latines on campus. Food will be provided varying from countries such as Mexico, Haiti, Peru, Venezuela, & El Salvador. Please join us to recognize the beauty of Latines and their contributions.
