"Great place to visit for all cultures"
Permanent exhibits of contemporary and folk art by Mexican and Mexican-American artists remain on display year-round. Families can also enjoy making their own artworks together on Sunday afternoons; call ahead to reserve a place in the museum’s weekly program. The museum hosts two performing arts festivals each year and a variety of other events. The gift shop offers Mexican pottery, jewelry, toys, and crafts.
