Revolution in the Fields Student Art Contest
In 2022, the Bakersfield College Social Justice Institute initiated a student art contest related to the Smithsonian traveling exhibit, Dolores Huerta: Revolution in the Fields. With support from the Arts Council of Kern BIPOC grant, the Bakersfield College Social Justice Institute was able to create a call for student art submissions in conjunction with the 4th annual Jess Nieto Memorial Conference. Below you may view the student winning submission and two honorable mentions.
