Duah-Agyeman, director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs and Syracuse University’s chief diversity officer. “This event is a wonderful opportunity for our young people to enjoy and express the richness of Latino cultures. I congratulate Bellevue Academy on teaming up with Syracuse in celebrating Latinos in Central New York.”
The event will be hosted by Hilda R. Martinez, assistant director for mentoring services in the Office of Multicultural Affairs at SU, and Bellevue Academy teacher Daniel Borges. For more information, contact Brian Griffith at 435-4486.
