At the California Center for the Arts Museum

Curated by Dulce Stein

June 21 – November 2, 2025

Presented by City Heights Community Development Corporation

The California Center for the Arts, Escondido is proud to partner with the Experimentally Structured Museum of Art (ESMoA) to present XICANA! San Diego, an expanded and reimagined version of the impactful exhibition originally developed by ESMoA at El Camino College in Torrance. Building on the strength of the Los Angeles-based show, this iteration brings together many of the original artists alongside new voices from San Diego County to foster a powerful cross-regional dialogue. Centered on the theme “Colors of the Border: Art, Identity, and Connection,” the exhibition explores the role of Chicana art in honoring collective narratives, celebrating cultural identity, and forging connections across communities.
