The Latino Canadian Cultural Association has a solid history of professional activities. We started to meet as a visual artists group in 1995 as the Latino Association at the Ontario College of Art and Design. We were born out of a need to create a support group that allowed members to exchange common experiences.

In May 2003, the old and new members decided to transform into a non-profit organization, which became incorporated as the Latino-Canadian Cultural Association in June 2003.
