Known as el “Corazón Cultural del Barrio” (The Cultural Heart of Latino Philadelphia), Taller Puertorriqueño promotes local and international artists while doing the daily work of transforming children’s artistic visions into reality. It now encompasses the Julia de Burgos Gift Shop, the Lorenzo Homar Gallery, the Roberto P. Hernández Theater, and educational classrooms along Philadelphia ’s historically Latino North 5th Street commercial corridor. 

Taller is committed to its mission to preserve, develop and promote Puerto Rican artistic and cultural traditions, as well as the quality representation of other Latin American cultures and our common roots.
