- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 30 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Aquí, Somos: 55 Years of SRBCC is Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center's signature anniversary fundraiser—an unforgettable night celebrating 55 years of Puerto Rican culture, community, and artistic excellence in Chicago. Mark your calendars for Saturday, May 30th, 2026.

This year’s program features Agua, Sol y Sereno (Puerto Rico), led by Artistic Director Pedro Adorno Irizarry, presenting an original performance created in Chicago through “Historias del Batey: Storytelling in Bomba,” a week-long series of workshops and creative labs with local artists and community members. Rooted in bomba’s power as a living, communal art form, the work weaves voice, rhythm, movement, and image—inviting story, humor, memory, and social commentary into the batey through purposeful improvisation and visual elements such as masks, flags, and printed or drawn pieces. 

This performance embodies everything SRBCC stands for: Puerto Rican artists from the Island and Chicago-based creatives coming together in a truly multidisciplinary celebration of culture, community, and collaboration.

Your ticket and donation directly support SRBCC’s year-round programming and artist fund at a critical moment—helping sustain a cultural home that continues to uplift artists and serve our community.

The evening also includes food and drinks provided by our generous sponsor Jibaritos on Harlem.
