Six times at the Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts\, and two times at the de Young Museum and one time at SOMArts. \nILLUSION is an amazing experience\, sharing the art\, the momentum\, the projects and ideas around us\, the creative process of individuals and groups.

Influenced by her training as a percussionist\, sound healing and dhrupad\, her work embodies rhythm and movement through a repetition of pen strokes and conveys a pleasing interaction between the legible\, asemic\, and the abstract.\n\n\n  \nPREVIEW THE EVENT \n\nKenya Moses trio \n \n  \nAdrian Arias- Live Painting \n \nAdrian Arias Mural “River to the Sky” in 69 seconds \n\nhttps://vimeo.com/682109842\n\n \nIN PERSON EVENT DETAILS\nTime: 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm Show (IN PERSON) \nTime: April 1st\, 2023\, 7pm- 10pm (IN PERSON) \nAdmission: Free  \n\n \n  \nDONATE
