Mexico Multicultural is an initiative under USA Multicultural, designed to connect Mexican leaders from each state with organizations in the U.S. and beyond. Through cultural ambassadorship, these delegates promote their traditions via music, dance, cuisine, art, and community service. Together, we are building a global stage for Mexican culture to shine.

We are proud to already have strong cultural leaders representing various states. Join the Movement! We are actively seeking cultural delegates from the remaining 26 states of Mexico! If you’re a community leader, artist, or passionate cultural advocate from one of these states, we want to hear from you:

Why Become a Delegate? As a delegate, you’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Represent your home state at festivals and cultural events

  • Collaborate with fellow Mexican leaders across the U.S.

  • Promote programs that uplift your community

  • Share your heritage with pride and authenticity

  • Create international connections through the arts
