Join us at UMMA for the opening event of Chicanas Changing History: The First 100 Symposium, a two-day event that will explore how Chicana historians have transformed the way we do and understand history, as well as who is included in U.S. history. The symposium will highlight the challenges Chicana historians have faced and continue to confront in the academy while we celebrate their outstanding accomplishments and contributions to the field of history, with a particular focus on alumni and faculty from U-M. 

The opening event kicks off with remarks by Dean of the College of Literature, Science, & the Arts Rosario Ceballo, a keynote lecture by U-M alum Dr. Natalia Molina, and a tour of the UMMA exhibition La Raza Art and Media Collective, 1975 – Today with curator Dave Choberka. Refreshments and time for socializing also included.
