On Sunday, September 15, 2024, Columbia County Sanctuary Movement will be hosting the region's 4th Annual Latinx Parade and Festival which draws over 1,000 people from across the region into Hudson for a day of celebrating Latinx culture, arts, and businesses.
The event is planned and led by Latinx community members of CCSM. We develop local leaders to support vendors in completing permits and preparing to attend the event and launching their businesses, as well as prioritize groups often marginalized within the Latinx community, such as Indigenous and Afro-Latinx communities, to perform, sell, and participate in the festival.
This year, sponsorships will also go toward renting a bus so that the hundreds of asylum seekers in Albany are able to join the festivities and find community.
