This building in East Harlem is a huge community center, theater and cultural hub. They host film festivals, political panels, birthday parties, salsa classes and more. Pretty amazing place.
Great!! When I want to go back to your roots, theyve lots of activities to learn Bomba y Plena, Salsa Dancing n much more...
We had a live band and DJ for my Mothers 70th Bday party. Its a great space.
You have dont have to be latino to enjoy the art and cultural events at this cultural center El Barrio/East Harlem...this institution has been around over three decades...great place to visit.
Place is hugh for my photo booth.. staff easy friendly helping me out.. No Complaints here, Place was great.. Highly Recommended
While grossly under utilized and worse mismanaged by the Hispanic Federation, its conceipt and significance is invaluable. El Taller Boricua/The Puerto Rican Workshop and Los Plenos de La 21 are what is left of the original cultural design. Its unfortunate and disgraceful for former NYC Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito to have schemed with fellow cohorts the Hispanic Federation, members of the local community board, and the Man In the High Castle to corrupt a selection process put forth by the NYC Economic Development Corporation to illicitly take over the centers management for future real estate development aims.
Great Community Resource - October-November 2017:: They are hosting a Disaster Relief Center with multiple agencies to help hurricane victims from Puerto Rico
Wished they had theater chairs instead of the folding chairs. Not easy to watch a movie for 2 hours on those hard uncomfortable chairs
Hispanic federation has done an amazing job with this space and we are grateful that the center hosted Santaland for evacuees
Ive attended several art exhibits and even spoken word events. It makes one proud to be Boricua.
Old timers fundraising was excellent. And the party was fantastic.
Held a screening there. It is in a very convenient place to get to & was well equipped for the job.
I love going there when someone gives a dance. Its like gamilt
Nice place to have a gathering, and the staff there is kind.

This organization gave us light, hope, direction and support, like nobody else. They are a treasure to me. And I will never forget his hugs words of encouragement and resources for us Puerto Ricans refugees because of Hurricane Maria. Thanks from ours. Thank you.
They prepared him to give help to those who came from PR, they gave me everything they could and they filled out the documents for public assistance, besides, there I saw the Senator from San Juan Carmen Julin I think she was with the mayors secretary of that place ,
I take my daughter to this place to take classes in music called bomba, which is a Puerto Rican rhythm. She loves it very much since it shares with other children who attend the same class ...
It is a Center with very humanitarian personnel. They provide a lot of help to the victims. God bless you always! Thank you. Success.......
A center for activities for all ages. My daughter attends full class and pump. Very good classes 👍

2021-10-25This place is inside a school, so it has a security guard. The theater is on the second floor near the washrooms. I went to see a great play in Spanish called El Juicio Final. There were many people from latin press.

2017-09-30Went to a music concert. Great setting. Cozy. Not a premium auditorium, but exceeded all our expectations. Being outsiders and getting in there just by coincidence, we can tell this is absolutely an important and fundamental space dedicated to the preservation of the latino culture in NY.

2019-11-18We held an event at this place, the room was big enough for what we needed it for, we were able to decorate, use our electronics for our presentation - it all worked out well. I would use this place again.

2018-10-23Attended a dance & not only were the people under dressed for the occasion but the sound system did not sound well. They also need to upgrade the AC , too warm.

2017-12-31This location has been a welcome busy hub for servicing those affected by the recent hurricanes. Although I found it further away than I might like, it and the people who work there have been instrumental and open.
