More than 50 years ago, the community came together to transform a freeway underpass into one of the world’s most iconic expressions of public art, cultural pride, and community self-determination. That same spirit continues to guide the Chicano Park Museum and Cultural Center (CPMCC) today and we invite you to help ensure that this legacy continues for generations to come.
The Chicano Park Museum & Cultural Center is more than a museum—it’s a living home for the stories, art, history, and traditions of our culture.
CPMCC is committed to preserving the legacy of Chicano Park and the spirit of the Chicano Movement by creating opportunities for artists, students, families, and community members to learn, create, and connect. From exhibitions and educational programs to public events, cultural celebrations, artist residencies, and community archives, we are committed to ensuring that our history is not only remembered but continues to inspire and move us every day.Â
Every donation directly supports:
Free and/or low-cost programming for youth and families
Exhibitions that celebrate Chicano, Indigenous, and borderlands art, history & culture
Preservation of our growing historical community archives and collections
Public programs, workshops, and cultural events
Opportunities for artists, scholars, and culture bearers to share their knowledgeÂ
When you give to CPMCC, you are investing in a future where culture is accessible, history is preserved, artists are supported, and our community continues to thrive.
Thank you for helping us keep our programs accessible and honoring the legacies of our communities.
