Ah Mexico!...A rich and colorful tapestry woven over centuries by art and culture, proud history, and industrious people. A land with indigenous roots, deeply vested in religion, steeped in tradition, whose social and political fabric is ever changing.
We, the House of Mexico, invite you to join us in our quest to solidify our role as an integral part of the International Cottages of the House of Pacific Relations and the total Balboa Park experience. Our main goal is to construct a cottage that will provide a physical presence, and to develop and implement on-going programs which serve the community and reflect our mission..."to share, celebrate, educate and promote the rich art, culture, and history of Mexico to San Diego and its visitors."
HOM is comprised of dedicated individuals and community partners who seek to foster an awareness, appreciation, and understanding of our beloved Mexico by utilizing a goodwill ambassador approach (pro-active relationship building). A series of major events held throughout the year in Balboa Park allow us to educate the public.
HOM is dedicated to sponsoring and participating in community events that keep us active and visible, and carry our message of inclusion to the greater San Diego County. These events have included:
The HOM Lawn Program
The Ethnic Food Fair
December Nights
The HOM Installation of Officers Dinner
The HOM Tardeada
Arte, Color, y Fiesta
