There are many exciting changes taking place at The Latino Museum. We have acquired a superb collection of art by Contemporary Latino artists from diverse backgrounds working in Los Angeles and in other cities and countries. Another exciting addition to our permanent collection is the Self-Help Graphics archive. Both of these collections add significant value and depth to our new educational guides on Latino art. These guides were produced by leading young scholars and recognized educators for use in our public schools. We also encourage you to look at our Guide to Los Angeles Cultural Institutions & Events, which provides a calendar of exhibitions, events and concerts taking place over the next six months. Most of these events are free to the public.

In addition to expanding and enhancing our exhibition and educational resources, we are also in the process of relocating to new facilities. We will let you know the details of our new home as the time approaches. Until then, we invite you to explore the many wonderful lessons and images our website has to offer.

We are in the process of renovating the old Los Angeles Theater Center in downtown Los Angeles. This new site will be a cultural center housing the Los Angeles Theater Company and the Latino Museum. The renovation phase will be completed in the first quarter of 2007. Our offices are permanently located there. For more details and artist renditions of the new buildings go to the "News and Events" section of this website.
