Lifelong Learners: Printed Perspectives

Friday, November 20 · 1 PM – 3 PM · Anacostia Community Museum, Program · Washington

About

Explore wellness, creativity, identity, and build community through portraiture. Face to Face is a playful portrait-making experience that invites Lifelong Learners to explore identity, memory, and connection through art. Participants paint a self-portrait and transfer the image onto paper to create a one-of-a-kind monoprint. The process encourages experimentation, embracing unexpected colors, textures, and imperfections as part of each person’s story. Through artmaking and conversation, participants consider how we see ourselves, how we see one another, and the experiences that shape who we are. Designed for all artistic abilities, the activity supports creative expression, social connection, and continued learning.
