(This poem won The Peoples Poet Award in 2007 and is still requested today)
Live Life to the fullest
You only get one chance-
To love, enjoy and play.
Just do your best you can today.
Take time to laugh and love-
Seek inspiration from above
Life is like a merry-go-round
What goes up must come down.
Take pride in every second
Help someone along the way
Don’t put off today for tomorrow-
Give life your best today.
Join us for a two-part workshop with exhibiting artist Sofía Luz Pérez and Syracuse artist Cayetano Valenzuela. In this workshop, Cayetano Valenzuela and Sofía Luz Pérez will share their own practices and processes in making a portrait/self-portrait and ask participants to create a portrait or self-portrait. The emphasis of the portrait should be on identity and cultural background/ancestry, but they encourage everyone to delve into any part of themselves or the person they are drawn to portraying. This is a free workshop with limited space available. We ask that you attend both sessions. Art supplies will be provided and you are welcome to also bring your own.
