This year, Alt.Latino also celebrates its 15th anniversary. Since its launch in 2010, the show has been an important platform for Latinx voices in music, art, and storytelling.
This anniversary coincides with Contreras receiving the prestigious Hispanic Heritage Foundation Journalism Award for his commitment to highlighting Latin music.
“El Tiny is my favorite time of year because we celebrate Latin music in all its forms. Wait for it! We do that all the time! But El Tiny is when we feature very special artists and performances,” said Felix Contreras, co-host of Alt.Latino and co-producer of El Tiny.
