Movimiento de Arte y Cultura Latino Americana

The Movimiento de Arte y Cultura Latino Americana will develop visual arts exhibitions and related public programs to engage people in civic dialogue and to create a new cultural model for an arts center where residents see the arts as a catalyst for civic engagement and community transformation. The program will produce 12 major visual art exhibitions, provide honoraria for up to 250 exhibiting artists, and expand public programs to enhance cultural opportunities. The museum also will build a paid curatorial internship program for students of color to cement its role as a strong community anchor grounded in the Chicano/Latino experience in the San Jose/Silicon Valley region. The exhibitions are expected to attract up to 21,000 visitors annually and reach approximately 30,000 community members in-person or virtually through 50 programming events.
