Throughout the galleries you will find information on the art in both Spanish and English, and all of the art is displayed in a way that shows the care and love that the curators have for these pieces!
Today, the museum is one of the most prominent first-voice institutions for Mexican art and culture within the USA, and they are in fact home to one of the nation's largest Mexican art collections!
