Ollantay Center for the Arts is an organization dedicated to disseminate Latino arts in New York. At the time there wasn’t any cultural or artistic Latino activity in the Borough of Queens, a place where first generation Latin American immigrants began to settle, Ollantay was born. Consequently It has a rich history in the cultural Latino life of Queens. Initially born as a theater group, it soon started presenting visual arts exhibits, literature readings, workshops, musical and community activities.
The variety of artistic endeavors and the quality of the artist and authors presented prompt distinguish the organization as a milestone in the Latin culture in New York City. Such a rich history and work done needed to be preserved.
