The Cheech Marin Center

A new art space in a mid-century setting, it will be, as Cheech says, the “center of Chicano art, not only painting, but sculpture, photography, and video arts.” Opening in 2021, The Cheech explores Chicano culture from the barrio to the Bay, cholos to Cesar Chavez, pre-Columbian to modern murals.

The center will be housed next door to the historic Mission Inn in a 61,420-square-foot facility, which was originally opened to the public as the Riverside Public Library in 1964. The Cheech is a perfect adaptive reuse of this mid-century building and the historic and vintage aspects will be preserved in its transformation from a library to a museum and cultural center.

Eat Sleep Work is honored to collaborate with The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art, Culture & Industry & The Riverside Art Museum on the THE CHEECH MARIN CENTER for Chicano Art, Culture & Industry website design and digital marketing.
