LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes—LA Plaza—is an institution of stories that makes known the role of Mexicans, Mexican Americans, and all Latinos in shaping the past, present, and future of Los Angeles.
LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes honors the past, inspires the future, and recognizes the enduring cultural influence of Mexicans, Mexican Americans and all Latinas/Latinos in Los Angeles through transformative exhibitions, programming and educational experiences.
Located near the site where Los Angeles was founded in 1781, LA Plaza's 2.2-acre campus includes two historic and newly renovated buildings (the Vickrey-Brunswig Building and Plaza House) surrounded by 30,000 square feet of public garden.

LA Plaza’s education programs offer our community of students, educators, and their families the opportunity to begin their journey learning about the history, culture, and contributions of Mexican and Mexican Americans in Southern California. Our programs seek to foster engaging conversations through inquiry-based methods and Socratic teaching, while nurturing a relationship of reciprocal inter-generational learning.
