The Smithsonian is offering a guided tour titled '¡Puro Ritmo! The Musical Journey of Salsa' as part of its Hispanic Heritage Month programming. The tour traces salsa's history and cultural roots, inviting visitors to explore the genre's influence on American music. It is part of a wider slate of Smithsonian events celebrating Hispanic and Latino heritage this month.

Charlotte's First Friday Arts series returns this October with a programme spanning ballet performances, salsa dancing and live music across the city. WFAE highlights the monthly arts event as a chance for residents to explore local venues, performances and cultural offerings in one evening. The initiative continues to draw attention as a fixture of Charlotte's cultural calendar.
