Mingei International Museum, Balboa Park, San Diego

Visual Arts Download To My Calendar

Join us for a special Art Break with Dawn Williams Boyd, a celebrated visual storyteller whose richly layered textile work, "Piscean Dancer," is featured in "Layered Narratives - Quilted Stories of Gender and Race at the 1876 Centennial." A working artist for over five decades as a daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother, Boyd brings deep personal experience and fierce conviction to every piece she creates. In this talk, she’ll reflect on her creative journey, from discovering her calling in a high school biology lab to finding her voice through fabric, inspired in part by the legendary Faith Ringgold.
