Located on the campus of East Los Angeles College, VPAM provides an environment to encounter a range of aesthetic expressions that illuminate the depth and diversity of artwork produced by people of the world, both contemporary and past.

This grant will provide exhibition support for “Movements and Ofrendas: Yreina Cervantez,” a career survey of Cervantez’s ground-breaking work.  Her work explores the relationship between contemporary art and social activist art and is a model of how art has a history of revealing injustices by bearing witness.  The show will run from May 2016 to July 2016.
