Our Team

  • Director of Social Media, Lele Lopez

    An activist, land and water protector, Youth Leader and Cultural Educator. Lele has an eye for art, and composition, her connection to our natural world is reflected in everything she does. As our Director of Social Media, she will bring you new and exciting content so you will always know what is happening at The SPACE!

  • Founding Director, MariaElena (Mia) Lopez

    As a Cultural Educator in our tri-counties area for the last 25+ years, it made sense and almost brought itself to fruition. The SPACE is the dream of many people who wanted to provide more for their community but were already working full time jobs as well as working for the benefit of our Tribal Community. I was the lucky one that was able to take the time out to get it going. I look forward to meeting and sharing SPACE with all of you!

  • Director of Programing, Alondra Felipe

    You will be greeted by phone, email and in person by our Director of Programing. Friendly, knowledgeable and patient, Alondra is the mom of a two year old, and currently working toward her teaching credentials. As if she didn’t already have enough on her plate, she will be keeping all of us organized and on schedule!
