54th Annual Chicano Park Day at the Fountain in the Placita
This year’s 54th Annual Chicano Park Day began with a powerful Land Acknowledgment and dedication to some of the barrio’s finest leadership, extending from the skatepark that memorializes important citizens to the streets and businesses of Barrio Logan. The day was filled with safe toy train rides for children, powerful speeches of resilience and the presence of culture and spirit of the community. The Barrio Logan Community has always embodied the tradition and livelihood of Chicano Park, where generations and generations of San Diegans have thrived and represented the community, religiously, politically and businesswise. The families enjoyed art, music and food. Look for next year’s Chicano Park Day!
