La bodega de mis sueños

La bodega de mis sueños is a fictitious business created on the facade of the Fitchburg Art Museum in Fitchburg, Massachusetts that considers how corner stores can serve as integral fixtures in many Latin communities in the U.S. where entrepreneurialism, reminders of home, and community care can thrive while also pointing to the growing Latin community in Fitchburg itself. Simultaneously, the work revives the museum's architectural history by referencing the building's past as commercial storefront space until the early 1980s, which one included a shoe store and barbershop. La bodega de mis sueños serves as a repository for the hopes and dreams of the neighboring community, providing a working phone number and an oral archive of the messages shared.
