Barrio Logan is a place with a strong pulse that has been kept beating by generations of Chicanx & Indigenous people.
We are grateful to be part of a community that takes care of one another and values Art, storytelling and resistance as strongly as we do. Collectively we are invested in pouring in resource, love, guidance, time into our youth and the next generations.
