- Category: Local Events
Silver City has long been a crossroads for cultures, ideas, and art. From murals on downtown walls to poetry readings, music festivals, and the performing arts, the town's creative life carries the stories of its people.
This fall, hosted by Silver City Theatre, those stories take center stage in El Movimiento Revisited: Telling Our Story – Chicanos in the Arts.
The program brings together five artists with deep ties to Silver City, Grant County, and Los Angeles: Simon Sotelo III, Fred Barraza, Rick Garcia, Dina Madrid, and Daniel E. Mora. Each works in a distinct medium, yet all share a dedication to expressing community, heritage, and identity through their art.
