One of four community conversations on the south side’s pollution and resistance history, followed by a facilitated workshop run by artist Alex! Jimenez, which will give participants the opportunity to respond to and add to the history through art making. They will create the clay tiles to be used on Jiminez’s memorial tile mural to those lost to or impacted by TCE, which will be located in Mission Manor Park, and unveiled December 13, 2025.

Clay tiles made will be permanently displayed on a mural at Mission Manor Park honoring those lost to TCE contamination. Museum Co-Director, Alisha Vasquez will lead the group in conversations about TCE, sharing stories of how the community created one of the US's first successful environmental movements to hold responsible parties accountable for the cleanup of TCE and care for the people affected.
