Pilsen Trip with EPIA

 
Profe Finaldi started the day in her classroom, teaching the students a little bit about the history of the Pilsen neighborhood in Chicago.  We took a bus to the Mexican Art Museum and looked around.  Then we got into groups of four or five students, making sure each group had some JCA members and some EPIA members, and we had a scavenger hunt for items that could be found in the many murals. 
 
Following that, we had a typical Mexican lunch in a typical Mexican restaurant, which happens to be owned by the family of Oscar Reyna, who accompanied us on this excursion.  
 
 

 Teachers Rosa and Pilar search for murals.
