Dear Cara,
You may want to check out the fall 2008 issue of the Museums & Social Issues journal, titled "Immigrants in America." The table of contents is here:
http://www.lcoastpress.com/journal_issue.php?id=109
The entire issue seems relevant to your question, but look at this article in particular: "Engaging Immigrant Audiences in Museums," by Jill K. Stein, Cecilia Garibay, and Kathryn E. Wilson.
Best of luck --
Sincerely,
Stefania R. Van Dyke
