At La Casa you can feel at home - "como en tu casa". Enjoy a cup of Puerto Rican coffee. Sit back and view our hundreds of cultural posters, photographs, read our history books ... view video documentaries ... or hear our traditional music. Our friendly librarians are here to welcome you from Monday to Saturday.

This two decade old institution has worked its way up the societal scale without ever abandoning its base. Each year thousands of our neighbors, teachers, seniors and children are exposed to the folkloric traditions of Puerto Rico. Look at what we plan for the coming year:
