Artists draw hope from Boyle Heights history

For the three artists featuring work in “Progressive Cultures: A Story of Boyle Heights,” an art exhibit at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, the history of social movements in Boyle Heights is both political and personal.  The collaboration itself was evocative of progressive movements that grew out of the neighborhood. "How communities can come together and make something beyond what we can imagine doing on our own is a very powerful thing." Read more about the artists and their work, on Boyle Heights Beat.
