    MACLA


    Comment on Facebook

    MACLA/Movimiento de Arte y Cultura Latino Americana is an inclusive contemporary arts space grounded in the Chicano/Latino experience that incubates new visual, literary and performance art in order to engage people in civic dialogue and community transformation. Founded in 1989 as the result of a broad community mobilization in the City of San Jose and nationwide on behalf of multicultural arts, MACLA has promoted, since its inception, a vision of arts programming as a vehicle for civic dialogue and social equity.

    A hybrid urban arts space located in downtown San Jose and rooted in the Chicano/Latino experience, it intersects many communities, cultures, and aesthetic approaches. The patrons, audiences, and participants are 70% Latino and 30% non-Latino. A large part of the programs are geared towards creating opportunities for interaction between traditional audiences and new art forms and emerging artists.
