our mission
Mi Gente CA empowers underrepresented creatives by cultivating meaningful cultural programming that honors identity, preserves tradition, and sparks connection. Through artistic expression and cultural education, we strengthen communities, create space for healing and belonging, and deepen cross-cultural understanding.
our vision
Mi Gente CA is shaping a future where artistic expression and cultural identity become pathways to connection, understanding, and community strength. We honor traditions, encourage curiosity, and guide people toward deeper understanding of themselves, their histories, and each other. Our work brings people back to themselves and back to one another.
our core values
inclusivity
Regardless of how you identify, we believe each individual has their own experiences and perspectives. We want to invite and encourage people of all backgrounds to contribute and shape our community, together.
"If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair."
— Shirley Chisholm
compassion
As humans, we are constantly learning and growing. Because making mistakes is inevitable, we insist everyone practices compassion in our spaces to show grace for ourselves and one another.
“We need more light about each other. Light creates understanding, understanding creates love, love creates patience, and patience creates unity.”
— Malcolm X
empowerment
We all have our own unique set of skills and knowledge. We want to encourage our community to own what makes them extraordinary and step into their power!
"If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be."
— Maya Angelou
