Kenneth Tan Art Exhibit
THE LOLA x KENNETH COLLABORATION
on display through May 2023
@Central Library, 5th Floor
The Lola x Kenneth Collaboration is a project by Kenneth Tan and his grandmother, or "lola" in Tagalog, Crescenciana.
"When Lola was ninety-four years old, I moved back home to San Jose, CA, to help care for her, and we started working together. Lola made paintings in watercolor, and I drew her memories on top of them. When Lola passed, she left behind her paintings, and I decided to finish everything she started. I promised."
Join Kenneth Tan, author of Crescenciana: A Memoir in Words and Illustrations, for a meditative drawing activity in honor of AAPI Heritage Month!
Saturday, May 13th, 3:30-5pm, following the Fae Myenne Ng author event
Kenneth will lead us in drawing banigs (Filipino woven mats) using simple line patterns inspired by Filipino culture. The process of drawing patterns can be calming, meditative, and fun! All skill levels are welcome.
