Celebrate Hispanic heritage, arts, and culture with a fun and educational afternoon at the Delaware Art Museum! Kids and their families will enjoy meeting artists featured in the Outlooks exhibition, Hispanic Lives, Latin Worlds—Simple Complexities, and will learn about the artists’ techniques and the cultural roots that inspired them. In addition, there will be colored pencil demonstrations, a variety of traditional Latin American garments and costumes to see, and Hispanic-inspired art activities.

Hispanic Lives, Latin Worlds—Simple Complexities(Vidas Hispanas, Mundos Latinos—Simplicidad y Complejidad)

September 6, 2008 – Oct. 12, 2008

This exhibition celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month with over 30 works of art whose diverse styles and media explore the juxtapositions between young and old, new and traditional, rural and urban, simple and complex. Hispanic Lives, Latin Worlds is part of the Museum’s Outlooks Exhibition Series, which features exhibitions created by regional organizations, individuals, and community groups that are then hosted by the Museum, furthering our mission to “offer an inclusive and essential community resource.” The guest curator is Riccardo Stoeckicht, Vice President of Operations at the Rodel Foundation of Delaware.
