On October 24th, a gala and award ceremony will take place to honor the legacy of these Latino filmmakers and producers and recognize them as powerhouses of the industry.
This event will honor the heritage of artists behind the camera, while acknowledging the future of the entertainment industry. The CCA decided to honor many notable figures such as Dolores Huerta, Andy Garcia, America Ferrera, and Oscar Issac. These ceremonies serve to empower the beauty behind Latino culture and the art of our storytelling.

From Huerta’s activism with Ceaser Chavez to America Ferrera’s inspiring contribution to feminist community. This year's showcase is a reflection of the generational impact of Latinos to the community they call their own.
