Jenny Oropeza was a barrier-breaking elected official whose career builds on the activism of many Chicanos. This curated collection gives us a glimpse into the too-short life of a dynamic public servant who spent more than 30 years fighting on the local and state level.
The educational installation of images and artifacts will be open to the public T, W, F 1-5 pm, Thurs 1-7 pm, and Sat 11-5 pm through 8/1. Free admission.
