Oakland Museum of California

Oakland Museum of California, the Spanish Speaking Citizens’ Foundation in Oakland, and the Puente Project in Hayward are partnering to expand an innovative program in which inner-city youth collect and preserve the often-overlooked Latino history of Oakland. The students learn about their community’s past through interviews with community elders. With the help of museum professionals and educators, the students will disseminate their results by creating an online exhibition and anthology of community stories.
