Sonoma County Museum is proud to be in The Arts District.. Downtown Santa Rosa
La Frontera del Norte aims to draw the thread from the earliest Latino population—small and precarious on Mexico’s northern frontier—to today’s growing community. Through images, artifacts and accounts, La Frontera del Norte will explore the resilience and vibrancy of Latino heritage in Sonoma County, revealing that while today many look at the Latino community with an unwavering focus on recent immigration, there is a deeper legacy and a broader perspective that begs for greater understanding. This exhibit was supported by a grant from The James Irvine Foundation. Additional funding was provided by the Hugh Futrell Corporation, Kendall-Jackson Winery, the Stuppin Fund for the Arts, Kevin Konicek and Michelle Zyromski, Donna and Robert Endicott, Chelinos and Mi Burrito.Read more...
