In Memoriam

The purpose of the Arsenio Rodriguez Foundation is to promote the greatness of Arsenios music. The foundation exists to help the world remember and understand Arsenios insight and vision for the expansion and popularization of Cuban music, especially Son which laid the foundation for Salsa.

The foundation will:

• Honor his grave site with a tombstone and small monument as it is currently unmarked;
• Facilitate the plan to have a street in Manhattan or the Bronx named for Arsenio Rodriguez;
• Promote an annual festival celebrating the music that Arsenio made popular, Son
• Support and fund workshops that teach the Cuban Tres guitar and Afro-Cuban rhythms
