Evenings of Art: Self-Portraits Inspired by Frida Kahlo
Overview
Evenings of Art: Self-Portraits Inspired by Frida Kahlo 🌺
Step into the vibrant, deeply personal world of Frida Kahlo, the Mexican artist whose self-portraits continue to captivate hearts and inspire generations. Known for her bold colors, surreal symbolism, and fearless self-expression, Frida turned her pain, strength, and identity into timeless works of art.
In this session, we’ll explore her distinctive style and the stories behind her paintings — then create our own self-portraits inspired by Frida’s world. Whether you paint yourself surrounded by nature, emotions, or imagination, this evening is all about expressing who you are through color and creativity.
This is a space to slow down, connect, and celebrate art as a form of healing and storytelling — just as Frida did.
What to Expect:
🌸 A short introduction to Frida Kahlo’s art and themes
🎨 Guided prompts for painting your own self-portrait (no experience needed!)
🍵 Flower tea to sip and enjoy
🎶 Music to set a warm, reflective mood
🖼️ A cozy community space to create and connect
By the end of the evening, you’ll walk away with your own self portrait — and maybe a few new friends.
🎟️ Limited capacity — reserve your spot early!
