The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art & Culture of the Riverside Art Museum has an onsite store where you can buy branded merchandise, as well as a unique selection of art by regional artists. Stop by to purchase t-shirts, mugs, keychains, and more! The store not only offers these keepsakes but also provides visitors with an opportunity to support local talent and take home a piece of Chicano culture. In addition to souvenirs, you can find limited edition prints, handcrafted jewelry, and literature that explores the rich history and influence of Chicano art. The exhibits and items available at the store serve as a meaningful extension of our mission, allowing patrons to engage more deeply with the artwork and its cultural significance. Whether you’re looking for a unique gift or a reminder of your visit, the store is a must-see destination.
The Cheech is excited to announce…
Judithe Hernández Beyond Myself, Somewhere, I Wait for My Arrival is a much overdue opportunity to immerse ourselves in the world and art of Judithe Hernandez. The catalog accompanies
the first major retrospective and comprehensive evaluation of her fifty-year career. It chronicles the
evolution of Hernández’s subversive female archetype—the protagonist of her critical
exploration of the historical and contemporary roles of women. The exhibition and catalog
center Hernández as part of a trailblazing generation of Chicana artists whose work shaped the
evolution of aesthetics and conceptual analysis at the core of Chicana/o/x art history and
artistic practices today.
Like the show, the catalog is organized with multiple approaches: chronological, conceptual, and
aesthetic, determined by the distinct insights and approaches Hernández brings to each of her
series. It includes her artist statement and a series of essays by established and emerging
scholars, deepening the historical and societal context of Hernández’s work.
Catalogues are available for purchase in-store at La Tiendita and via domestic shipping (excl. AK and HI) for a fee of $10.00.
Every purchase directly supports our mission to preserve and celebrate art.
