Guatemala

Guatemala’s national day is September 15, Independence Day. That is today.

Guatemala's embassy brings Central America's vibrant cultural heart to Washington, D.C., offering a rich window into ancient Mayan traditions blended with colorful contemporary artistry. While checking their calendar regularly is worthwhile, the embassy represents a gateway to exploring Guatemala's world-renowned textiles, coffee culture, and the living legacy of indigenous communities that shape the nation's identity. If you're passionate about pre-Columbian history, traditional crafts, or Latin American heritage, this embassy is definitely worth connecting with for cultural programming and diplomatic events.
