Our Mission
We are a community-based cultural organization whose primary purpose is to preserve and promote Puerto Rican arts and culture. We represent and support all Latinx cultural expressions and our common roots. By embracing our shared heritage and facilitating intercultural understanding we empower our community.


Our Vision
We are guided by the vision of a proud Latinx community that is connected, interculturally aware, and economically vibrant in a society that values its own diversity. Taller catalyzes community engagement through our arts and cultural resources that build bridges between all communities within the Puerto Rican, and Latinx Diaspora.
Our Values
We are committed to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and actively practicing Anti-Racism.
We recognize DEI as an ongoing practice, we as an organization and as individuals acknowledge that learning cultural literacy and unlearning biases is a lifelong commitment.
Land Acknowledgement
Taller Puertorriqueño recognizes Philadelphia as part of Lënapehòkink, the stolen, contemporary, traditional and ancestral homeland of the Lenape people.
Inclusive Language
We acknowledge that there are many different terms to describe various identities within “Latinidad”, we choose to use the terms Latinx and Latine because we feel it is inclusive of many identities.
