Puerto Rican Cultural Center - Austin

y, bonded like Family, under the umbrella of cultural arts and traditions. You must travel to faraway states to enjoy another cultural center like ours! Founded in 1997, our nonprofit mission is to promote cultural awareness and pride through education and events based in folklore, history and traditions -- dance, music, community theatre, ancestral fighting arts, and indigenous Taino heritage! Our East Austin facility is home to Puerto Rican Folkloric Dance (PRFDance), our performing company of dancers, musicians, and juniors. We share Taino culture and living traditions through Yukayeke Yara Cu (Tribe of the Sacred Place) - our Taino yukayeke of blood descendants and Guaytiao (friends).

Since 2001, our achievement and quality have been validated by repeat support by the National Endowment for the Arts, Texas Commission on the Arts, City of Austin through the Cultural Arts Division, Humanities Texas, the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities (2011+) and others! Our facility is available for rent for special events.
