LA RAZA GALERIA POSADA
In 2024, La Raza Galeria Posada (LRGP) was reclaimed and revived by RCAF artists, their descendants, and community supporters. It is not related to the Latino Center of Art and Culture. Our mission includes documentation of RCAF history; the curation and presentation of artist and community focused projects; and the cultivation of community collaborations. We also support the RCAF’s annual Dia de los Muertos observance at St. Mary’s Cemetery, which is the oldest in the region and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2025. Along with continuing the RCAF’s spirit of art and activism, LRGP will educate present and future generations about the RCAF and its LRGP’s artistic contributions and community impact. LRGP has an intergenerational Advisory Committee comprised of culture bearers, artists, and community activists: Sra. Angelbertha Cobb, Juan Carrillo, Stan Padilla, David Rasul, Terezita Romo, Lupe Portillo, Pat Aguirre, George Singh, Cristina Mora, Lita Portillo Sandoval, Amar Azucena Cid, Xochitl Arellano, and Maceo Montoya. It is supported by tax exempt donations through its fiscal sponsor, Sol Collective.
With its revival, we will educate the public about the Royal Chicano Air Force and it’s LRGP’s origins and contributions to Chicana/o and Native American art and the Sacramento region’s cultural history. We look forward to sharing more soon!
