History

Fiestas de Loiza en Connecticut en Honor al Apostol Santiago (FLECHAS) was founded 33 years ago to promote and celebrate the richness and colorful customs, heritage, culture and traditions of Puerto Rico.

Started as a celebration of cultural pride by local leaders, the Annual Fiestas have come to garner wide visibility and recognition throughout New England.

FLECHAS is a year-round, full service not for profit cultural organization based in New Haven, Connecticut, that promotes Puerto Rico’s African legacy through traditional song, dance, cuisine and folklore.
