Join us for a brief history and presentation of the art of Mexican Tin Folk Art and make a Milagro with Rachel-Anne Palacios, a self-taught, multicultural artist, whose pieces reflect the respect she has for culture, spirituality, elders, and the cycle of life and death. You can choose to emboss a hand, heart, star or your own design into metal, color in with permanent marker and take home to hang on your wall! Recommended for ages 12+.
Rachel-Anne teaches cultural and folk arts education programming throughout the Bay Area for people of all ages as well as giving back to her Oakland community by serving as the resident Cultural Arts instructor at Cleveland and Bella Vista Elementary schools. She is driven by her interest in her cultural legacies as well as expanding her students’ understanding of local and global cultures.
All materials will be supplied by the Library. In the Makerspace.
