“Dolores Huerta: Revolution in the Fields/Revolución en los Campos” Exhibition

The exhibition shares the compelling story of activist Dolores Huerta and the farmworkers movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Featuring text in English and Spanish, it explores Huerta’s public life as a co-founder of the United Farm Workers Union and what led her to become a Latina civil rights icon. She tirelessly led the fight for racial and labor justice along Cesar Chavez and continues to this day at 92 years of age. The exhibition is organized by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service in collaboration with the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. This exhibition received federal support from the Latino Initiatives Pool administered by the Smithsonian Latino Center.
