Category: Enrichment Series- Open to the Public
In 1982, Carlos Tortolero organized a group of fellow educators and founded the Mexican Fine Arts Museum, which opened its doors in 1987. The goal was to establish an arts and cultural organization committed to accessibility, education, and social justice. The museum also provided a positive influence for the local Mexican community, especially since many other art institutions did not address Mexican art. Tortolero will discuss how the institution has grown, its audience has broadened, and its reach now extends across the United States and beyond. These programs are free for members. A $15 donation is requested for non-members. If you would like to become a member, click HERE. Our 3 course Lunch is served at noon before the program. Cost is $20 for members and $25 for non-members. The menu changes weekly, and is prepared by our Executive Chef Woody. To make an on-line lunch reservation no later than the Wednesday before a program, click HERE or call the office at 708-386-2729.
