Why Latinos? Because we are joining forces and uniting Hispanic Heritage Month and Arts Month for our highlight event, “Plein Air LIVE”.
The idea for Hispanic Heritage Month began as a way to promote the history, culture, and contributions of Hispanic-Americans — specifically, those whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. It is observed annually from September 15 to October 15. It is a time to appreciate and celebrate the colorful cultures, rich histories, and diversity of the American Latino community. This year, our “Plein Air LIVE” event will feature an eclectic collection of Latino artists live at the new downtown restaurant Lumen8 Rooftop Social.
Lumen8 Rooftop Social will showcase Latino artists painting “en plein air” while the restaurant and designated parts of the 8th floor will host and exhibit different mediums of art by Latino/a artists from our community. There will be a budget to pay artists for their time and for painting materials. We are open to ideas and other negotiations. So if you are a passionate artist with Hispanic heritage and are interested in participating in this Arts Month Highlight event, please email us at: jaguart03@gmail.com
¿Por qué Latinos? Porque estamos juntando fuerzas y uniendo el Mes de la Herencia Hispana y el Mes de las Artes para nuestro evento, “Plein Air LIVE”.
La idea del Mes de la Herencia Hispana comenzó como una forma de promover la historia, la cultura y las contribuciones de los hispanoamericanos, específicamente aquellos cuyos antepasados vinieron de España, México, el Caribe y América Central y del Sur. Se celebra anualmente del 15 de septiembre al 15 de octubre. Es un momento para apreciar y celebrar las coloridas culturas, las ricas historias y la diversidad de la comunidad latina estadounidense. Este año, nuestro evento “Plein Air LIVE” contará con una colección ecléctica de artistas latinos EN VIVO en el nuevo restaurante del downtown, LUMEN8 Rooftop Social.
El Lumen8 Rooftop Social exhibirá artistas latinos pintando “al aire libre”, mientras que el restaurante y las partes designadas del octavo piso albergarán y exhibirán diferentes medios de arte de artistas latinos de nuestra comunidad. Habrá un presupuesto para pagar a los artistas por su tiempo y materiales de pintura. Estamos abiertos a ideas y otras negociaciones. Entonces, si usted es un/a artista apasionado con herencia hispana y está interesado en participar en este evento destacado del Mes de las Artes, envíenos un correo electrónico a: jaguart03@gmail.com
