American Latino National Heritage Fellows
The National Endowment for the Arts, the fellowships are awarded based on three criteria: 1) artistic excellence, 2) impact on their tradition, and 3) authenticity. “Authenticity” means that the artists represent something greater than themselves—an entire tradition and that the people of their cultural community see them as keepers of their cornerstone traditions. The Latino National Heritage Fellows in the field of music epitomize this. They reflect major areas of musical accomplishment in Latino USA, including flagship regional traditions such as Tejano, New Mexican, Puerto Rican, and regional Mexican traditions planted firmly in the Southwest.
