As Latino Heritage Month draws to a close, the son of Boston's first Latino city councilor is hosting a celebration at City Hall.
Felix Arroyo, a Jamaica Plain resident and at-large city councilor, invites everyone to this year's celebration. It will be held on Monday from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the council chambers, which are on the fifth floor of City Hall.
