MURALS UNDER THE STARS presented by Gregorio Luke! Mexican Cuisine (8/8) | Ernest Hemingway (8/9)

"MURALS UNDER THE STARS" 
Mexican Cuisine (Aug 8) and Ernest Hemingway (Aug 9)



Sound Bite for MURALS UNDER THE STARS
Mexican Cuisine (Aug 8) and Ernest Hemingway (Aug 9)

MEXICAN CUISINE


Mexican cuisine is closely tied to the culture, social structure and popular traditions for the country. Rich with regional cuisines, such as can be tasted by dishes created in Veracruz and the Yucatan for example, Mexican cuisine is also filled with specialties ranging in use for special occasions, flavors distinctly its own, and dishes which reflect its rich history. 

For these reasons and others, Mexican cuisine has been recognized as very much a piece of its intangible cultural heritage.

Join Gregorio Luke this Friday, August 8 in the City of Duarte, as he engages with the audience on this delectable topic.


MURALS UNDER THE STARS: MEXICAN CUISINE

WHEN: Friday, August 8th
TIME:   6:00-8:30 pm

WHERE:    Pamela Park
ADDRESS: 2236 Goodall Ave., Duarte, CA 91010

ERNEST HEMINGWAY


American Author. Journalist. International Celebrity. Icon.

Ernest Hemingway has long been regarded as a great writer whose works have left, and continue to leave, an indelible mark on readers the world over.  His life was fascinating; yet, how he wrote is what intrigues people even more. It has even been said that if one wishes to learn how to write, they need only read a book written by Hemingway.

Join Gregorio Luke this Saturday as he deconstructs Ernest Hemingway: A Man of Letters - A Man of Action.

MURALS UNDER THE STARS: ERNEST HEMINGWAY

MURALS UNDER THE STARS, a multimedia presentation by eminent art historian, Gregorio Luke, presents...

SOR JUANA INEZ DE LA CRUZ

Sound Bite for MURALS UNDER THE STARS: Sor Juana


Enchantingly beautiful, intensely spiritual, and dangerously controversial, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, is considered the first feminist of the Americas!

She learned to read at age 3, and begged to be dressed like a man so she could attend the university, which was closed to women at the time. Amazed by her intellect, she was invited to live in the Royal Court; however, she later became a nun to dedicate herself to her studies.

Her poetry and prose voiced opinions that were so shocking and modern for Mexico in the 1600s that she was silenced by the church.


This Saturday, July 26th, we continue the journey! Become part of ARCOS and together we can bring art and beauty to everyone.

Donate here to #KeepArtFree. Every bit helps; and, your contribution helps MURALS UNDER THE STARS continue to take art to the people, for FREE.
