| Site Description | César E. Chávez National Monument covers 117 acres in the Tehachapi Mountains of the area historically known as Nuestra Señora Reina de La Paz. The monument is managed collaboratively by the National Park Service and the National Chavez Center. The National Park Service owns and manages 1.9 acres of the land and structures while the National Chavez Center manages the portion that is not run by the National Park Service. The 1.9 acre area includes the present day visitor center with César's historic office, the memorial garden where César and Helen Chávez are buried, and the Chávez home. Members of the Chávez family live and work at La Paz continuing the legacy of César and Helen Chávez's work. |
| Project Description | In the spring of 2021, CyArk documented the former home of César and Helen Chávez that is part of César E. Chávez National Monument. This park centers on the historic community of La Paz where Chávez lived and worked along with his family and hundreds of United Farm Work volunteers for over 20 years. The documentation was utilized to create an interactive guided tour of the site in order to make this site virtually accessible to anyone wanting to learn more about the farm workers movement and the legacy of civil rights in the United States. In addition to the millimeter accurate 3D model serving as the foundation for the interactive tour of the home, CyArk worked with the National Park Service and members of the Chávez family to share the history of the site and personal memories associated the movement and growing up in La Paz. |
