Overview

Description

Step into the heart of Hispanic Heritage Month with an evening of powerful storytelling that honors the experience, traditions, and voices that continue to shape St. Louis. Hosted by storytelling facilitator Adam Flores, local St. Louisans Eric Acevedo, Catherine Baez, Stephanie Colero, and Luis Torres will share their personal stories in a way that promises to stir emotions, spark laughter, and invite moments of reflection and connection. Discover how the Missouri Historical Society’s Migration and Memory Initiative is working to preserve the stories of people who have come from around the globe and made St. Louis their home, ensuring these lived experiences become part of our region’s history. Before and after the storytelling program, explore cultural resource tables, enjoy performances by Folkloric Group Colombia and Alma de Mexico, and purchase food and drinks from Hispanic vendors.
