You’re invited to the debut of Sueños Real, Kalli Arte’s Beyond the Press residency, culminating exhibition this Saturday, July 23, from 5:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. RSVP free on Eventbrite, all ages welcome!

Paying homage to the cultural ecosystem that is Boyle Heights, the exhibition will be grounded by a symbolic installation of the artists’ home. A central sculpture will connect like roots and branches, to various images of elements, people, and iconographies that are core to their creative practice and family unit.  Follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter for updates!

Join us as we discuss and share forms of Radical Self-Care practices and rituals, with a guided meditation, at our upcoming Wellness Wednesday gathering on July 20 from 6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. Register here.
