About Our Mural- Located at Rawlings Library 3rd Fl.
Corazón del Pueblo by David Ocelotl Garcia
In 2008, PCCLD received a grant from the Colorado Humanities for Dr. David Sandoval to write a book on the history of Latinos in Pueblo County. After the book was written, fund-raising was held to paint a mural based on the book. When the money was obtained a committee selected artist David Ocetotl Garcia. The mural is on the 3rd floor of the Rawlings Library.
The Hispanic Resource Center offers Bilingual and Spanish storytime every week at the Rawlings Library. From September through November of 2026, there will be a Bilingual Storytime at the Lucero branch. You may find the dates and times on our event calendar here.
We offer free English, Spanish and citizenship classes starting in September and ending in May. There is no registration required!
