A New Color: The Art of Being Edythe Boone'; Diversity Film Series
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Jan 12, 6:30-9pm in Piedmont venue and Jan 14, 3pm in Oakland venue
Edythe Boone guides East Bay students and seniors through the mural-making process. The film not only demystifies how the huge, complex art works are made; it also demonstrates how the process of working together to produce a piece of public art reinforces important community values like long-term thinking, self-esteem, and teamwork. At a time when the Ghost Ship fire makes the challenges artists face to stay and work in the Bay Area heartbreakingly clear, Boone's work, and that of all Bay Area muralists, are a tangible testament to the critical importance of art here. Join us in learning more. 2015 Audience Favorite at the Mill Valley Film Festival!
