Craft Lab Family Workshop: Printed Cartoons and Caricatures with the NEA Big Read! 

Join teaching artist Billie Rae Vinson to create printed family portraits in conjunction with this year’s NEA Big Read: Los Angeles! Using simple print-making techniques participants will make exaggerated caricature artworks inspired by this year’s Big Read novel, Roz Chast’s Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant? In her memoir Chast tells a story filled with laughs and tears, as she represents her parents’ final years through four-color cartoons, family photos, and narrative writing. Craft Lab is for all ages, everyone is welcome! 

Space is limited. Advance tickets are required. All adults and children aged 3 and up must have a ticket to take part in the program. Members should only reserve the number of member tickets that their membership allows. Non-member guests should purchase general admission tickets. A limited number of free general admission tickets are available to Big Read program participants.
