Our Story

In 2024, AreitoTaino was conceived as a platform to provide equitable access to quality training, mentorship, and performance experiences. Founded by three visionary Latina women recognizing a need for greater representation and opportunity within the performing arts, they envisioned an organization that would not only cultivate excellence but also champion the voices of diverse artists. This vision became the foundation for AreitoTaino, a non-profit performing arts organization committed to creating an inclusive and vibrant artistic community.
