JACKSONVILLE, FL -- Artwalk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month.

Several artists joined Good Morning Jacksonville Wednesday morning to talk about some of the displays that will be out tonight.

Yvonne Lozano with the Art Center Cooperative talked about the Artsy Bra Collection that will make its debut at Artwalk.

"It was just centric enough to attract attention and something that a lot of other organizations have done to raise funds for breast cancer research," said Lozano, whose family is from Colombia.

Varick Rosete, president of the American Institute of  Graphic Arts (AIGA), unveiled new posters for the "Always Summer" show at the Jacksonville Landing.
