CENTRO is a repository for the archives of many famous and influential Puerto Ricans. However, it has also been a place to keep our own history – CENTRO’s history. Join his special Library & Archives Lunch Hour to explore the history of CENTRO as it’s maintained in the archives. We’ll dive into primary sources dating back to our finding in 1973 and re-construct nuestra historia using photographs, documents, and more!

This event is part of the CENTRO 50th Anniversary Celebration! Join us all of 2023 in celebrating 50 years of CENTRO’s work to strengthen, diversify, and reimagine the field of Puerto Rican Studies!
