Qué Chola! Opening Reception

March 8, 2019

6-9 pm

Join us for the free public reception to celebrate the opening of Qué Chola! The exhibition will be on view March 8, 2019 – August 4, 2019.

This exhibition features cholas and homegirls in art and pop culture and celebrates them as symbols of strength, power, and resilience in the face of racial, gender, and economic adversity.

The Qué Chola Photo Board will be displayed in the exhibition and is an opportunity to honor the Cholas in our lives, past and present, by sharing photos of homegirls showing off their style and pride.

If you have a photo you’d like included on the photo board you can send them to us. And if you send them before March 8, they will be part of the Qué Chola! opening reception. For more information on how to share, click here.
