National Museum of Mexican Art

The National Museum of Mexican Art in collaboration with Mather present Viva la Vida, a monthly workshop series tailored for adults 55+!

This event is at capacity. If you have any questions, please contact angela@nationalmuseumofmexicanart.org. Thank you!

Adults ages 55+ are invited to join us for an immersive experience in the galleries, followed by an art-making activity. This month, we will highlight Día de Muertos: A Celebration of Remembrance in our Main Gallery. In this workshop, we will use natural dyes like turmeric to create free-hand or stencil drawings on amate paper. Amate is a type of bark paper, used in Mexico for centuries!&nbsp;&nbsp;Coffee and treats will be provided from local establishments. This program is free, but registration is required.
