Jose Guadalupe Posada es el artista del pueblo
porque el creció con la
gente mexicana, su trabajo fué inspirado por ellos, y porque ellos
fueron
su audiencia. -Jennifer Bean
Since
its inception in 1972 La Raza Galeria Posada has been one of the few non-profit
organizations in the Sacramento area where Raza have seen themselves,
read about themselves, and express themselves as they truly are.
It is this tradition that the bookstore looks to continue by providing
art, literature and community information to inspire and empower the Chicano
community.
In 2008, we look forward to expanding our literature collection to include
contemporary Raza authors addressing issues which affect the Raza Community
today. The bookstore will also continue the promotion and sale of regional
Chicano/a, Native American and Latin American fine art. In addition we
will provide off site framing services to preserve the cultural, political
and historical significance of our art for researchers and admirers alike
