Join Latinos in Heritage Conservation in Chicago, Illinois for Congreso 2026! Chicago is a living archive of migration, labor, resistance, and reinvention. Afro Latinx, Indigenous, Mexican, Central American, Caribbean, and working-class communities have shaped the city’s cultural landscape for generations. It is the right place to build what comes next, especially as the city considers policies that will shape community safety, patterns of displacement, and who is able to remain part of Chicago’s cultural fabric.
