El Barrio: Puerto Rican New York explores the neighborhood of Spanish East Harlem as an incubator of a new Puerto Rican identity in the 1960s and as an emotional keystone for New Yorkers of Puerto Rican heritage. The exhibition features the work of photographer Hiram S. Maristany and material from the archives of the Center for Puerto Rican Studies at Hunter College and is presented in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the Center.

 

El Barrio: Puerto Rican New York is made possible with support from JPMorgan Chase Foundation and the New York Council for the Humanities, with funding for public programs provided by Time Warner Inc. The presenting sponsor of its 30th anniversary activities is Banco Popular.
