The Mexicantown Latino Cultural Center was conceived by the Mexicantown Community Development Center (MCDC) in Southwest Detroit.
The idea is to build out an unfinished meeting space into a full-fledged community facility, with an art gallery, cafe and community learning kitchen, all managed by the nonprofit MCDC.
Phase 1 of the project received a Kresge KIP:D grant and is currently (summer 2020) under construction.
