Experience Tower After Hours,™ our ongoing series celebrating San Diego’s unique and vibrant ethnic mix.

Colombian culture lies at the crossroads of Latin America. It is a multicultural society—with Mexican, Caribbean, African, European, Middle Eastern, and Native American influences. Colombia was originally inhabited by indigenous people, including the Muisca, Tariano, and Quimbaya. Their music can still be heard in Colombian songs and instruments today. Enjoy the lively sounds of Colombian music, the beauty of Colombian dance, and the delectable tastes of Colombian cuisine during this vibrant cultural celebration.
