Community Conversation Explores Chicano Activism in the Arts :: Arts & Music, Education

Silver City has long been a crossroads for cultures, ideas, and art. From murals on downtown walls to poetry readings, music festivals, and the performing arts, the town's creative life carries the stories of its people.
