Itโs the 25th anniversary of the official opening of the National Hispanic Cultural Center, and October feels like the perfect season to give thanks to a couple of historical figures with timeless โ and timely โ legacies, as well as two public figures who have been around since the NHCCโs very first party. Beginning this month, the countryโsย onlyย venue of its kind will be celebrating worldwide โLatinidadโ in all of its forms. But at the center of this yearโs honors are two iconic figures whose names let locals and travelers know theyโve reached a world famous intersection: Avenida Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta. And in case you didnโt know, like a Dรญa de Los Muertos marigold growing from decades-old seeds and still thriving in 2025, the NHCC building is planted right at that spot.

In October, the National Hispanic Cultural Center will be honoring the life of Dolores Huerta with an opera simply and appropriately titled Dolores.
