About the Event
From the museum:
This groundbreaking exhibit pays tribute to the vibrant and creative energy of San Diego's hip-hop subculture during the mid-80s to early 90s. It's a salute to the immigrant and multi-gen immigrant youth who fueled this unforgettable movement, uniting diverse communities and inspiring a generation.
Get ready to explore the fusion of cultures that defined this iconic era, celebrating self-expression through aerosol art, graffiti, DJs, MCs, underground parties, and dance crews.
Join us at the New Americans Museum & Immigration Learning Center, located at 2825 Dewey Rd, San Diego, CA, Point Loma, San Diego, as we take you on an immersive journey through San Diego's hip-hop scene.
Sept. 14 to Dec. 31, 2023.
Our opening hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursdays and Fridays, and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

This museum, located at NTC @ Liberty Station, provides inspiring and compelling educational and cultural programs and activities exploring our diverse immigrant experiences. For centuries, the United States has beckoned to immigrants the world over. As a result, contemporary America is a diverse mosaic of cultures and traditions. One in five Americans today was either born in a foreign country or has a parent who was born abroad. In fact, children of immigrant families is the fastest growing population group in the U.S. Understanding the impact of these demographic changes is a national imperative. In the civic, economic, and artistic arenas, yesterday’s newcomer is tomorrow’s pioneer in a continuing process that defines us to this day.
