Living Room

Join the UMMA Student Advisory Board in conversation with book selections inspired by the UMMA exhibition La Raza Art & Media Collective, 1975 – Today. Books were selected by the exhibition curator Dave Choberka, Melon Curator for University Learning and Programs. 

Over coffee, tea, and pastries, explore ideas from “Contemporary Chicano Art: Color and Culture for a New America” by George Vargas and “The House on Mango Street” by Sandra Cisneros. Come having read both, one, or none. Find new meaning in the exhibition, connect the literature to the media, and make some friends.

Free and open to the public.
