The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art & Culture of the Riverside Art Museum is a museum dedicated to presenting and preserving Chicano art within Riverside, California. It emerged as a public-private partnership between the Riverside Art Museum, the City of Riverside, and Cheech Marin, incorporating a substantial collection of approximately 500 works from Marin that significantly expands the institution’s holdings in Chicana/o/x art. The center, which opened in 2022, complements RAM’s existing facilities by offering high-quality exhibitions and educational programs intended to engage the community and inspire a lifelong appreciation of the arts. RAM positions itself as a community-focused arts organization that integrates art into people’s lives through exhibitions and education across its two-location campus. The Riverside Art Museum itself traces its roots to a 1954 foundation as a 501(c)(3) organization and operates from its Riverside facilities, with The Cheech as a key component added to broaden its cultural scope. In recent developments, RAM has pursued partnerships and community initiatives, including collaborations with local organizations to support youth creativity and cultural enrichment.
