Cesar
Chavez Education Building
The
Arts Education Program holds over thirty art classes at venues
through the city; however, it has one permanent facility that
serves as the education center for the Guadalupe Cultural Arts
Center.
The Cesar Chavez Education Building holds three classroom
spaces for year-round on-going classes. This historic building
is located across the street from the Guadalupe Theater and the
Administrative Offices.
Its
central location gives it much accessibility to the immediate
community, hence increasing enrollment of students into the Education
Program every year.
Born: March 31, 1927
Died: April 23, 1993
Cesar Chavez was a Mexican American labor activist and leader
of the United Farm Workers. During the 20th century he was a
leading voice for migrant farm workers (people who move from
place to place in order to find work). His tireless leadership
focused national attention on these laborers' terrible working
conditions, which eventually led to
improvements. |
