About the Workshop:
Join exhibiting artist Alejandro Macías for a special 3-hour mixed-media workshop exploring identity through portraiture. Participants will use acrylic, graphite, and paper to create a series of “split portraits,” blending traditional observational drawing with expressive abstraction.

Guided by Macías—whose multidisciplinary work examines migration, identity, and belonging—this hands-on session is open to all skill levels and includes all materials.

Inspired by the current exhibition: The Armor We Wear
