Aurora's rich cultural heritage on display
The City of Aurora Hispanic Heritage Advisory Board (AHHAB), in partnership with the East Aurora School District 131 and West Aurora School District 129, hosted its annual “El Dia de los Niños” event earlier this spring.
This traditional Latin American event recognizes children, pays homage to their importance in society, and endorses their well-being.
Founded in 2002, the City of Aurora Hispanic Heritage Advisory Board’s mission is to embrace, preserve and promote the heritage and contributions of Hispanics. In addition to supporting other citywide activities, the AHHAB hosts three significant annual events: the AHHAB Community (Awards & Scholarship) Breakfast, El Día de los Niños and the Parade of Nations during Fiestas Patrias.
Check out our gallery of photos from this year's event.
