Education
The Mexican Museum's programs stem from the understanding that a community is comprised of many influences, histories and experiences. To more accurately reflect this complexity, the Museum has expanded its focus to include multiple perspectives of Latin American contemporary and historical art.

Designed with the understanding that community engagement is a reciprocal and ongoing endeavor, the Museum's educational initiatives are grounded in the concept of first-voice programming -- of and by the culture. This overall approach to education is based on communicating the multi-faceted artistic and cultural ideas of the Americas.
