His status as an undocumented\, queer artivist has fueled the contents of his visual art\, which depict key individuals and moments of the DREAM Act and the migrant rights movement. Undocumented students\, organizers and allies across the country have used Salgado’s artwork to call attention to the migrant rights movement. \n\n\n\nSalgado is the co-creator of The Disruptors Fellowship\, a program at The Center for Cultural Power for emerging television writers of color who identify as trans/and or non-binary\, disabled\, undocumented/formerly undocumented immigrants. His work has been displayed at the Oakland Museum\, SFMOMA\, and Smithsonian.   \n\n\n\nPor el Pueblo: The Legacy and Influence of Malaquías Montoya centers around the living impact of Chicano artist\, Malaquías Montoya\, whose legacy as a public-serving artist\, activist\, and community leader serves as inspiration for younger generations within the Chicano community and beyond.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGET MUSEUM ADMISSION TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility\n\n\n\nOakland Museum of California (OMCA) is committed to providing programs that are accessible\, welcoming\, and inclusive of our community.

SUMMARY:Member Gallery Chats: The Art and History of Dorothea Lange
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Chats at OMCA\n\n        \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis month’s Member Gallery Chat takes a deeper dive into the life and work of featured artist\, Dorothea Lange.  \n\n\n\nDorothea Lange (1895-1965) documented American life with riveting\, intimate photographs that captured the human face of major social issues of the 20th century. Best known for iconic images of migrant farmworkers during the Depression of the 1930s\, her many other projects include photographs of Japanese American citizens incarcerated during World War II\, community displacement\, and the urban criminal justice system. Though rooted in historical events\, Lange’s photographs make powerful connections to important themes and events of today. Above all\, they demonstrate how empathy and compassion—focused through art— can sway minds and prompt change.   \n\n\n\nPlease join our knowledgeable and enthusiastic Member Gallery Chats  facilitators this second Saturday\, April 13  from 12 to 1 pm\,  for this special OMCA membership offering: The Art & History of Dorothea Lange. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBECOME A MEMBER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility\n\n\n\nOakland Museum of California (OMCA) is committed to providing programs that are accessible\, welcoming\, and inclusive of our community.
