The lively sounds of Latin music filled the space, while the aroma of authentic flavors created a warm and welcoming energy.

An Immersive Experience

Upstairs in our seminar space, guests experienced Tampa native and UT alum @artbyalissa’s “Tampeño” exhibition—an art collection that beautifully captured the soul and color of Tampa’s Latin roots. Meanwhile, in Leads Coffeehouse, the Son+1 Band kept the energy alive with vibrant salsa rhythms that had everyone on their feet, dancing the night away. Attendees also enjoyed Tampa favorites, including our signature Café Con Leche and Cuban Sandwiches, creating a true taste of local tradition.

The evening showcased incredible performances and creativity from local artists and small businesses who shared their passion, heritage, and stories. From music and art to authentic food and fellowship, each moment highlighted the beauty and influence of Hispanic culture within our community.
