SAN JOSE'S MEXICAN HERITAGE PLAZA CELEBRATES 25 YEARS

The Mexican Heritage Plaza, home of the School of Arts and Culture and gateway to East San Jose, is now 25 years old. As the cultural center marks another milestone, new leadership is taking it to the next level.

The center sits on six acres on the same property where Cesar Chavez held his first grape boycott outside the old Safeway. Now it's home to a slew of community programs, including free or low-cost music and art classes for children.
