Brief Description of
LibroMobile is celebrating over 5 years of cultivating diversity
Project
through books in Santa Ana and 4 years of our tiny bookstore
collaborating with local and diverse guest artists in presenting FREE
live readings, workshops & literary arts in the surrounding areasl
Our 4th Anniversary LibroMobile Literary Arts Festival is scheduled
for January 15th, 2022 in -person and virtually at Heritage Museum of
OC. It will unite local and visiting BIPOC artists, feature art vendors,
local food by BIPOC and all booklovers. The day will include live
readings, collaborative workshops, and musical performances,
culminating with the presentation of the Modesta Avila award.
Describe the LibroMobile Arts Cooperative (LMAC) intends to empower artists of
community benefits color and culturally enrich residents in Orange County, California.
of this event Through social engagement, diverse arts, equitable practices, and
direct action, LMAC aspires to counter the impact of gentrification on
the local community by providing culturally relevant arts education
and reinvesting profits in the local residents, arts industry, and
business economy.
Established in 2016 in Santa Ana, LMAC is a community -based
collaboration between a mobile bookstore and cultural center
practices. It builds on anti -gentrification movement culture and
cultivates diversity through literature and the arts by prioritizing
Black, Indigenous, people of color and integrating free reading and
writing programs, visual exhibits, and year-round creative workshops
in Santa Ana, California and its surrounding areas.
For six years and as the only cooperatively -run bookstore in Santa
Ana, LMAC has been able to realize its vision for a community -based
self-sustaining literary arts center gracias to the dedication of the
bookstore community. Recognized across the U.S. for organizing
and presenting literary arts programing prioritizing BIPOC and
LGBTQ+ artists, LMAC holds some 30 to 45 events per year, many of
which draw intersectional and multigenerational audiences from
Southern California and virtually across the nation.
LMAC aspires to cultivate writers and artists in our own community,
always prioritizing local artists of color. We strive to provide
honorariums for all our guest artists — investing in our community
and BIPOC artists in order to continue to create and gain
sustainability together. All of our events are free and open to the
public.
As of 2018, bookstore profits, public donations, and capital from
grants support the hybrid nonprofit organization fulfill its mission by
funding its operating budget, local and guest artists, special
exhibitions, establish the Crear Studio gallery, and a variety of arts
education programs, including funding Barrio writers — free creative
writing workshops for youth 13-21 that has been in existence since
2009. In 2020, LMAC established a community -based advisory board
that ensures the mission statement is met through all efforts. Arts
cooperative members lead daily tasks and initiatives to keep the
bookstore and free programming accessible and sustainable to the
general public.
Our annual literary arts festival is just one example of how we
reinvest by creating visibility and sustainability for our local BIPOC
artists, makers, and cultural producers. All local vendors are
provided free space and all local BIPOC artists presenting at the
event are provided a stipend. We also prioritize using local
businesses to accommodate our stage and AV rental, along with
promotional items like posters, totes, bookmarks, etc.
