From Life to Canvas: Find Your Voice in the Everyday | Art Workshop

Join studio artist Arturo Correa for a non- traditional painting workshop that’ll guide you through a journey to connect the world around you, both positive and negative, to the art that you make.

This workshop centers the notion that art is a powerful means of expressing and reflecting on our feelings and values that inform our lives. Arturo will share his own approach to artmaking that uncovers personal insights about yourself and utilize this insight as a means to make conceptually meaningful artwork.

This workshop is ideal for artists who are looking to branch out of their comfort zone and expand on their conceptual understanding of the artistic process. Materials will be provided, but participants are welcome to bring their own as well.
