This small museum featuring Hispanic culture and fine art is fun and colorful, and has exhibits and art displays all kids will enjoy....

Though it has a small permanent collection of 20th-century Mexican art, photographs from the Mexican revolution, and a fascinating array of masks from the state of Guerrero, this museum is best known for the yearly "Young Latino Artists" show. This show isn't held at the same time every year, but it's usually a summer event. You'll have to check the website for dates. The show's curators choose...

But they did have an interesting unifying theme the day I went to Mexic-Arte (actually thought the place was Mexico Arte, but Tripadvisor says different). The theme was masks, and the two larger rooms had beautifully exhibited Guerrero masks of fishermen,...

As the owner of a business that employs disadvantaged Mexican women, I am sorry to say that this institution which claims to champion the Mexican culture has done a huge disservice to poor women and their families who depend on them in Mexico.The Mexic-Arte Museum Gift Shop has asked for a product that my company has handmade in Mexico by a number of these women. These women are paid once we...
