Casita Maria Center for Arts & Education

South Bronx families can register children in grades K through 8 for free after-school or summer arts programming, visit gallery exhibitions, or attend public tours and all-ages events at Casita Maria on Simpson Street. Active registration contacts are on the home page.

The 2026 South Bronx Culture Festival on May 29 and 30 has passed; treat that free music, dance, games, food, and art-making weekend as a model for local Latino, Afro-Cuban, jazz, mambo, salsa, and hip-hop programming rather than a current date. Year-round youth arts remain the standing offer.

Register for after-school or summer arts if kids need a recurring slot, and watch the calendar for the next all-ages public event.
