The Latino Cultural Center (LCC) is hosting seven free, family-friendly events during December.
The exhibit, Marian Ichaso Lefeld: Tierra de Gracia, is running now until February 26, 2022. During regular operating hours, guests can view paintings created by Ichaso Lefeld.
According to a press release, the exhibit is filled with “large-scale paintings that represent her perspective on the Venezuelan Modernist utopia resulting from the 20th-century oil boom.”
Vibrant colors, geometric and abstract shapes, and oils on canvas are combined to create images she remembers of Caracas, oil wealth, and exploitation in Venezuela. More recently, the paintings made by the artist represent Venezuela’s development and social and economic struggles.
On December 9, starting at 7 p.m., kick up your heels with Line Dancing at the LLC. Guests can bring their own drinks and snacks. There will be an instructor leading the event.
Also on December 9, LCC is hosting the Joaquin Achucarro Foundation Daniel del Pino. This free event starts at 7:30 p.m. and provides musical entertainment from Daniel del Pino. The press release states, “Daniel del Pino is one of the leading Spanish concert pianists in the international scene.”
