Opening Reception: Spirit Sees Red
Thursday, September 30, 2021, 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm
FREE
Meet artist M.E. Guadalupe Rubi at the opening reception for the exhibition, Spirit Sees Red. Spirit Sees Red is a meditation on memory: the stories we inherit and those we create to remember. Drawing inspiration from the First Nations tradition of the sacredness of the color red, Latin folklore, and the desire to reclaim an Indigenous narrative, artist M.E. Guadalupe Rubi embraces botany and the natural world as a source of healing and reconciliation. Meet Rubi at this opening reception for the exhibition.
FREE. Registration required. Walk-ups welcome upon availability.
