Centro Cultural Andino was established in 1993 with a mission to unite people of Andean-American descent living in Rhode Island. The organization has since evolved into the Andean Cultural Center of Rhode Island, a 501c3 non-profit charity dedicated to promoting and preserving Andean culture and heritage. Andean culture refers to the Indigenous peoples of the Andes. This region includes the longest continental mountain range in the world that extends through six South American countries. These countries include Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela.
