Arteritano Foundation

Preserving culture.
Expanding access.

The Arteritano Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that promotes, preserves, and celebrates Hispanic arts and culture through education, performance, and community programs that inspire creativity, cultural awareness, and lifelong appreciation of cultural heritage.

A cultural home for Vacaville's Hispanic heritage.

We are rooted in the traditions that Latino and Spanish-heritage families have carried into this city across generations — flamenco, Latin American folklore, indigenous textile practices, culinary heritage, music, and more. Through education, performance, and community, we create space for these living traditions to be experienced, shared, and passed on.

Some of us came to Vacaville carrying traditions our children have never had the chance to fully embrace. Others were born here, searching for a place to belong. This foundation exists for both — and for the generations that come after, who feel drawn to a deeper connection with their roots.
