Nuestro espacio
Tendremos nuestra galería de ladrillo y mortero y espacio educativo para 2023. Estamos en el proceso de explorar la mejor ubicación y la construiremos pronto. Contará con nuestro espacio de galería, varias aulas y un espacio abierto para clases comunitarias, reuniones, conferencias y trabajo. (¡Quizás más, también!)
¡Estén atentos para más detalles!
Mientras tanto, apóyanos con una donación, inscribiéndote en una clase, compartiendo nuestro progreso, suscribiéndote a nuestro boletín informativo por correo electrónico o aprendiendo más sobre nuestro trabajo.
