SUMMARY:Adios Amor
DESCRIPTION:Film – Imagen Award 2020  \nIn-Person Film Screening \nDiscovery of lost photographs sparks the search for a hero that history forgot— Maria Moreno\, a migrant mother who sacrificed everything but her twelve kids in the passionate pursuit of justice for farmworkers.

The first farm worker woman in America to be hired as a union organizer\, Maria’s story was silenced and her legacy buried—until now.    \nPerformances will be presented at 50% capacity in the Teatro and masks are required throughout the event\, regardless of vaccination status.
