This year marks the 40 anniversary of El Tecolote, the Mission District’s own bilingual weekly newspaper.
For many years El Tecolote was the only news outlet capturing the day-to-day life of the Latino community in San Francisco. El Tecolote’s photo archive tells the story of the political, cultural and social development of that community. In celebration of 40 years of service, the MCCLA presents Imagining the Mission: Pasado, Presente y Futuro an exhibition featuring images from the the archive and past El Tecolote staff, photos from present day staffers, and the work of local youth.
