As part of National Hispanic Heritage Month, AARP Virgin Islands is participating in a two-day event aimed at bringing islanders together to have fun while learning about social services.

The activities begin with a baseball game in Estate Profit on Friday, Sept. 23. On Saturday, the neighborhood will be the site of “Fiesta en el Barrio,” a party featuring Hispanic musicians, dancers and storytellers, as well as food and crafts.

Everyone is welcome to attend the free event, and representatives of government agencies and nonprofit organizations will be on hand to inform participants about services they may be missing out on due in part to language barriers.

For details, go to aarp.org/vi.
