¡Bienvenidos al Centro Cultural México Americano de El Paso! Welcome to El Paso’s Mexican American Cultural Center!

Un Centro de Aprendizaje Vivo y Activo For El Paso’s brand new Mexican American Cultural Center, learning about the different angles of this borderland’s Mexican American cultural experience is a primary focus. Equipped with a multitude of versatile educational spaces, the MACC is an interdisciplinary learning campus with the goal to share, learn, conserve, and preserve cultural traditions, flavors, and art.

The Mexican American Cultural Center opened its doors on March 22, 2025 with the largest turnout for a grand opening in the Museum and Cultural Department’s history. With over 10,000 people in attendance, we were so overwhelmed with the support. Since then, we have been building our comunidad and have hosted hand-on workshops, activities, cooking classes, musical and dance performances and so much more!

The work of the MACC did not just start in March 2025. Since Spring 2024, staff hosted 63 workshops throughout all City Council Districts, serving over 3,000 residents. As we continue to grow and meet new residents, and visitors from our of town, our work has been focused on providing a safe, communal space for all people to come together to learn, celebrate and practice the wide array of expression in Mexican Cultural Heritage.
