This month, Jano Cortijo will facilitate a art appreciate program with a focus on Nature. We will marvel at the wonder of forms and colors found in nature. We will engage in slow and careful observation of various works in different techniques to appreciate and discuss how artists have captured flowers, trees, fruits and gardens throughout time.

Jano Cortijo is an arts educator whose work finds him engaging audiences of various ages, abilities, and backgrounds in museums, classrooms, community centers, and online. Straying far from the canon to elevate artists and works that have been excluded or erased from mainstream conversations, Cortijo encourages critical discussion while connecting the participants’ individual histories and stories with the art and art makers.

Join us with your curiosity and come ready to share thoughts and ideas.
