Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción Executive Director Jorge Hernandez, Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción board member Ynes Cindy Simon, and Representative Joseph Kennedy pose for this group portrait during the ceremony to mark the opening of the Villa Victoria Cultural Center. Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción, led by 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.
