Special guest Jacobo Dominguez exhibiting
ALEBRIJES in the cultural area.
As a Renaissance artist Jacobo loves the creative medium. The monolithic figures of Paper Mache, paintings, styrofoam sculptures, and etchings have been his field of creation. All these forms of art exude a visual clarity and depth of feeling. Admirers of his art are tied into the visual world at an essential level.
Jacobo is known as Manos Magicas, (magic hands) through his art he emphasizes excellent color combinations, vibrant energy and detail and accents each piece with a definite signature that only Jacobo Dominguez can create. Visit his ongoing presentations and culinary work in the cultural area where he will present a salsa making workshop and a presentation on Alebrijes!! Don't Miss It!!
