About the Event
Logan Barrio is one of the original Mexican barrios in Santa Ana. Its roots trace back to 1886 with the founding of Santa Ana East, where Mexican and Indigenous families soon began to settle and grow the area into more than just a place to live.
In commemoration of the 25th Logan Barrio Reunion and at the Crear Studio gallery, view the exhibits’ historic photographs, sit in Chepa’s corner, and travel through time via a tapestry of culture and community spanning over 138 years. Audiences can explore the barrio’s historic layers formerly framed by orchards and agriculture and now a home to a legacy of families in early 20th century Santa Ana.
Special acknowledgements to historian and Logan Barrio community member Mary Garcia, the Logan Reunion Committee, the Andrade family, and especially Josephine “Chepa” Andrade’s grandson Michael for keeping the history present today and from now on as the Logan Barrio Archival Project.
