Renowned instrument maker William Cumpiano led a Puerto Rican Tiple Construction Workshop at Trinity College from August 15-20, 2016. One of the goals of the workshop is to revive the small guitar-like instrument, which has almost disappeared, unlike its big brother the Puerto Rican cuatro, which remains highly popular. The 2016 Puerto Rican Tiple Construction Workshop was sponsored and organized by the Trinity College Studio Arts Program, Center Church, The Center for Urban and Global Studies at Trinity College, and The Puerto Rican Cuatro Project.

This event and collaboration were made possible thanks to a generous grant by the Center for Urban and Global Studies Arts Committee.
