Organized in Escondido, California some fourteen years ago, the Hispanic Heritage Project helped archives that housed Hispanic colonial documents.Income was at first generated from proceeds earned by taking care of and selling produce from a city-owned avocado and orange grove. Later when the old grove could no longer provide the funds needed they sought donations and later launched their second enterprise, selling Hispanic books online.

As activities in Mexico grew so did the need of additional funds.We are now imaging the colonial documents of the Spanish colony known as New Spain.This is the area now known as the Caribbean, Southwestern United States, Mexico, part of Guatemala, and the Philippines.This has become a mammoth project requiring a very large and growing budget.

Necessity has led us to our latest and newest undertaking for raising funds, the sale of fine art. A modest donation of art has made this possible.Now exhibited in a hallway of the ArtHatch Gallery in Escondido is a display of art works entitled, “miarte.”We have received donations from artists, art dealers, and private collectors representing different art styles and media.For those who live in the Escondido area you can view our collection in the section called “miarte” and for those not in our area you may find us online at http://miarte.info

We invite you to visit our website and see if one of our pieces will enhance your home or office.
