HOLA Education

The Hispanic Organization of Latin Actors (HOLA) is dedicated to expanding the presence of Latinx and Hispanic artists in entertainment and media through the development, education and empowerment of emerging and established artists. 

In expanding job opportunities for Hispanic actors, HOLA strengthens and supports the available talent pool through its Educational Programs which offers professional development, acting training and networking opportunities for members and the Hispanic community. This is an invaluable resource for artists to further develop their skills, gain practical experience and industry knowledge to support a greater chance of success in their careers. Our programming consists of HOLA Workshops, HOLA Master Classes, HOLA Talks and Spotlights. The majority of these programs are free with membership and any event that requires a fee is offered at an affordable or discounted rate.
