We are excited to announce our first exhibition of the year at our Cultural Center!

Mujer - Poder y Fuerza

We celebrate the strength of women: the struggles, challenges, unconditional love, and their tenacity to travel through adversity, all while being mothers, daughters, sisters, tías, madrinas, comadres, and friends.

Save the date! Opening day will be March 7th and the exhibit will be up for all of March.

More details coming soon!
