Fondo del Sol
About Fondo del Sol
Fondo del Sol Visual Arts Center, founded in 1973, was a non-profit visual arts center in Washington, D.C. It was the second oldest
Latino multicultural museum in the United States. The center, whose focus was on the art and cultural heritage of the people of the Americas, was D.C.'s only multilingual museum and offered materials in English, French, Russian, and Spanish. Fondo del Sol was a member of the Dupont-Kalorama Museums Consortium.
The museum was artist-run and one of its annual highlights was the June Walk Week, a three-day audio-visual celebration of Hispanic art and culture.
