Creating a platform for the voices of underrepresented artists.

HABLA Underground: Harvesting Asian Black Latino Artists is a collaborative of artists of all ethnicities (Caucasian included) who are creating a platform in the mainstream art world for the grossly underrepresented voices of non-Caucasian artists and of art in general which reflects themes and images outside of the White realm.
