More information

 

Established by David Rockefeller in 1965, Americas Society (AS) is the premier forum dedicated to education, debate, and dialogue in the Americas. Americas Society's Literature, Music and Visual Arts programs aim to create a space for interaction and enhanced appreciation for emerging and established cultural figures from across the hemisphere by presenting writers, musicians, artists, and scholars from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Canada to U.S. audiences. As the leading forum for hemisphere-wide debate, our public policy programs engage opinion leaders from the public and private sectors in positive dialogue at our fora in New York, Washington DC, and Miami, and in Canada and throughout Latin America, to exchange ideas and formulate solutions to the challenges facing the Americas today.
