Two men at the opening of the Villa Victoria Cultural Center.
1986
Two men stand in the hall of the Villa Victoria Cultural Center whose opening in 1986 was celebrated with speeches and music. Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción, led by Jorge Hernandez, purchased a former church on West Newton Street in Boston's South End and renovated it into a cultural center and performing arts venue for the city's Hispanic community. The Center was renamed the Jorge N. Hernandez Cultural Center in honor of Hernandez, who died just a few weeks after this inaugural ceremony.
