Yesterday marked the birth of one of the most celebrated painters of the 20th century, Jacob Lawrence, who was born on September 7, 1917. Lawrence is known for his vibrant figurative paintings focused on Black Americans’ experiences, daily life in Harlem, and events from U.S. history. He once said that his works “express my life and experience. I paint the things I know about and the things I have experienced.”
ARTnews looked back on the artist’s pioneering career and some of his most acclaimed artworks.

Last week we had the honor of leading a printmaking workshop at ¡VIVA! WEST AURORA as SD129 celebrated the start of National Hispanic Heritage Month!
The event at Greenman Elementary was filled with cultural richness, family fun, and community spirit. Participants learned about Aztec symbols and motifs, and created their own Aztec/Mayan print.
A huge THANK YOU to WEPA libros for inviting us to collaborate for this event! And congrats to West Aurora School District 129 for hosting a successful event. Thank you for having us!

This summer, we had our very first Meditation and Mandala paint party in our beautiful forest preserves. We began with a brief meditation using a version of the Buddha board (painting with water that allows you to create temporary artwork), followed by the creation of beautiful, unique mandalas. Participants left feeling more centered, grounded, and peaceful.
Thanks to Forest Preserve District of Cook County, Trust for Public Land for funding this event through their Connecting People to Nature Challenge!
