Proposition 5

Proposition 5 will complete renovations at the 1926 Carver High School (now George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center), our community’s window into the history of local African American history and culture. Bond funding will go toward two other local cultural icons, Santa Rita Center (1017 E. Hadley) where labor activist Cesar Chavez fasted for 24 days in 1972, and the 1922 Memorial Hall at Steele Indian School Park (pictured above) for community performance space.
