The Armenian American Museum and the Brand Library & Art Center have released a robust slate of community events ranging from discussion panels to film screening which will compliment their current exhibition “Armenia: An Open Wound” to run through June 11, the Armenian American Museum said.

On Thursday, May 5, a collaborative event titled “Latino Americans: Empire of Dreams (1880-1942)” will be hosted at the Brand Library & Art Center in partnership with the California State University, Northridge (CSUN) History Department and the American Library Association.

The event will screen footage from the PBS documentary series “Latino Americans” and feature an engaging discussion with scholar Jorge N. Leal on behalf of the CSUN History Department. Leal will discuss cultural enrichment as a byproduct of Latin American immigration to the United States, and the dynamic connections between Los Angeles’ diverse immigrant communities. Opening remarks will be given by special guest, Mundo Max’s anchorwoman and renowned journalist Palmira Perez.

This program is one in a series taking place in conjunction with “Armenia: An Open Wound,” an exhibition presented by The City of Glendale and the Library, Arts & Culture Department in partnership with the Armenian American Museum and curated by the Museo Memoria y Tolerancia [Museum of Memory & Tolerance] in Mexico City. The exhibit will be on view at the Brand Library Art Galleries between April 16 and June 11, 2016.
