Hispanic Heritage Month
To complement an older national traveling exhibit, called ¡Vive El Tenis!: Common Threads Different Peoples, created in 2006 by the International Tennis Hall of Fame located in Rhode Island, USTA Colorado created a local project devoted to showcasing Hispanic players, contributors, coaches and pioneers from Colorado in the fall of 2014.
The Portrait Series is an illustration of la familia, a guiding theme that complements the family-oriented Latino culture.
Former photojournalist and Pulitzer prize-winning local photographer Bear Gutierrez joined USTA Colorado to debut this collection alongside the Hall of Fame's traveling exhibit, which was on loan during September 2014 at the Webb Municipal Building Atrium in downtown Denver.
