Audio Description
In this building, accountants managed the finances of the United Farm Workers union. Eventually, as the union expanded and the movement grew, the financial operation moved to other offices. This building is currently not in use.
Look closely at the wooden front door to see its carving of an eagle. The carving represents the Huelga eagle that was used as a symbol of the farmworker movement.
