Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with Design Studio Art Gallery's (DSAG) newest exhibit, "Latinic," which focuses on cultural identity, issues relating to self identity, and societal views and interpretations of the Hispanic culture and community.

DSAG asks "What is ultimately the difference between the two terms Hispanic and Latino? Why are people identified as one, but not the other? Is this debate more geographical, cultural, or lingual? Is one term viewed as more positive and/or negative than another? How is 'Hispanic' culture identified in this country?"

DSAG invites you to attend their opening reception where they will examine these issues and offer answers and various interpretations of the aforementioned questions.

The gallery is located in Hyattsville’s new Arts District at 5702 Baltimore Avenue, Hyattsville, MD, 20781. Contact the gallery at (301) 779-4907 or (202) 446-7373 and by email at info@designstudioartgallery.com  Regular hours are Wed - Fri 11am - 7pm, Sat 10am -5pm, Sun 1pm - 5pm
