Subject: Press release Mario Torero


Press Update
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 4/15/15
CHE Café Collective 
1000 Scholars Drive
La Jolla, CA
 
Event: Paint the CHE!
Thursday, 4/16/15, 10 AM-3PM
International Renowned Chicano Artist Mario Torero 
 
The occupation of the CHE has been ongoing since Tuesday March 24th.  No law enforcement have shown up to evict occupants from the building.  We invite the press to attend and document Paint the CHE.

 

Mario Torero will be returning to the CHE Café to retouch his murals, including that of activist, Cesar Chavez.  In addition this event invites students and community members to fill in one of the unpainted walls of the CHE with their own works. 

 

Mario Torero participated in grassroots Chicano movements at the UCSD campus and is the artist behind the Peterson Chicano Mural.  The CHE has long been an oasis of free expression in the midst of University censure.  Paint the CHE recognizes Mario’s contributions and invites others to assist him and express themselves creatively.

 

This event is endorsed by UCSD MEChA
