Artist Talks & Workshop at Orozco Gallery - 115 S Cayuga St

ARTIST TALKS & WORKSHOP NIGHT
🗓️ Wednesday, May 28th | ⏰ 6–8 PM | 📍 115 S Cayuga St, Ithaca, NY

Join us for a powerful and poetic evening led by Colombian artists Dorelly Johanna Villareal Martinez, Lua Arroyo, and local poet Yessica Martinez. This collaborative workshop invites participants to activate memory through color, using poetry as a guide for reflection and creativity.

✨ Together, you’ll craft a circular thread necklace, weaving personal and ancestral stories into fiber. The activity draws from mystical, feminine, and cultural energies—a grounding and creative experience for all levels.

🎨 Poetry meets jewelry weaving
🧶 Materials provided; no experience necessary
🌈 Explore memory, identity & ancestral connection through color

Non-alcoholic drinks, cash bar, all ages welcome!

Made possible by Yen Ospina & her nomadic Orozco Gallery, Latino Civic Association, and the Cornell Rural Humanities grant, and Einhorn Center for Community Engagement.
