You are cordially invited to a reception for Dichos: The David Damian Figueroa Collection. Dichos is an exhibition at the UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center Library that highlights the personal collection of David Damian Figueroa and includes objects from his papers, which are archived at the CSRC. Figueroa pairs his mother’s sayings—dichos—with items that represent his life’s journey. Because the Latinas/os that have inspired his career reflect the lives and contributions of the Latina/o community more broadly, the exhibition also serves as a tribute to the amazing men and women that form its history, art, and culture.
The exhibition runs September 17 through October 30, 2012.
