Nice space with attention to different perspectives that contextualize works and give voice to those that didn’t have one.
A small exhibit pulled partly from their permanent collection and used text panels to give multiple points of view from the time. Others were more contemporary from those underrepresented.
We also really enjoyed the exhibit in Black Potters of Old Edgefield, SC. The exhibit flowed well with the history woven in.
A nice art museum to visit when in Ann Arbor. Admission is free and open late certain days weekly.

An understated and modest museum in acknowledgement to a very important San Antonio, Texas and Tejano figure.
The home is well kept with two main structures for touring. The outside kitchen and the main house. There are some period pieces but mainly interpretive text panels give a rich context to Navarro’s role in Texas and Tejano history set in Laredito neighborhood of San Antonio.
The signatures exhibit was an interesting nod to the use of unique touches used back in mid to late 1800s. I liked also the flag associated with Mexican independence as well as the early symbol of the eagle with the nopal.
The gift shop has books and some logo items of the museum as well as some artisan items from a local shop in San Antonio.
A good place to visit for San Antonio and Texas history. He was an amazing advocate for Tejanos.

Beautiful historic cemetery with many of Detroit’s greats buried there.
We stopped by the office and a representative met us outside with a map and list of some of the notable people buried there with the locations. The map I’ve found online, but not the the list, so I’ve included it here.
It’s a peaceful and reflective walk or drive, with symbolism everywhere. Such detail and artistry in the moments to honor these people. The walk/drive gives you a history lesson of sorts. We looked up the unlisted large monuments and often found the story of those buried there. It was a real representation of Detroit’s past.
Well worth a visit.
