The 2020 Sundance Film Festival is officially underway! <\/p>\n

Eva Longoria<\/a><\/strong> and America Ferrera<\/a><\/strong> took to Instagram to share their excitement over the first-ever The Latinx House taking over Sundance this year in Park City, Utah. <\/p>\n

According to the Hollywood Reporter<\/em> back in October, Time’s Up founder CEO Tina Tchen<\/strong> announced her support for The Latinx House<\/a>, “an initiative to create community, engagement and further opportunities for Latinx voices in and outside of Hollywood.” <\/p>\n

“Most amazing time last night celebrating the launch of @thelatinxhouse at Sundance. Everyone’s welcome in this stunningly gorgeous space built for Latinx voices to shine! So thankful to the amazing women who made this dream a reality \u2013 @activistmonicaramirez @alexkondracke @olguitasegura,” wrote the Superstore<\/em> star on Instagram, alongside pictures of her and the co-founders at the launch party last night<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Latinx House<\/a> was co-founded by Monica Ramirez <\/strong>(Justice for Migrant Women founder), Olga Segura<\/strong> and Alex Martinez Kondracke<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Stars like Eva, America, Gina Rodriguez<\/a><\/strong>, Karla Souza<\/strong>, and Diane Guerrero<\/strong> are also involved in the project. <\/p>\n

On Instagram Stories, America also shared a behind-the-scenes look at what was going down at The Latinx House. <\/p>\n

“This is the Latinx library at The Latinx House and they’ve got my book American Like Me<\/em>,” America said in a video, pointing to her book as well as Diane’s In The Country We Love<\/em> and Julissa Arce<\/strong>‘s Someone Like Me<\/em>. “And they’ve got my homegirls books too and a bunch of other Latinx writers. This place is so gorgeous.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The party was a joint event with Netflix who is celebrating the launch of Con Todo<\/a>, a new community on the streaming platform for “Latinx by Latinos. A home for all of us, with all the colores y sabores we bring to the table.” <\/p>\n

Eva also took to Instagram<\/a> to share her excitement on such a special night at Sundance Film Festival.<\/p>\n

“Two of my favorite people in the world! Wilmer, America and I have traveled the world together fighting for equality everywhere,” Eva wrote, alongside a picture of them with Wilmer Valderrama<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The Desperate Housewives<\/em> star added, “I couldn’t think of better partners to do this with. And here we are in Sundance, at our newly launched @thelatinxhouse celebrating our community’s presence in television and film! Love you both so much! @wilmervalderrama @americaferrera #SundanceFilmFestival.”<\/p>\n

The Ugly Betty<\/em> alum also commented on Eva’s picture, writing, “My sister and brother for life.”<\/p>\n

This weekend at Sundance, The Latinx House is also hosting a series of panels<\/a> on advancing Latinx access and representation in entertainment, a fireside chat with America and the importance of the immigration story in film. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
