Join us for an illuminating presentation on Corita Kent—artist, educator, and revolutionary spirit who helped shape the cultural fabric of 20th-century Los Angeles. Known for her vivid colors, bold typography, and fearless social commentary, Corita turned everyday images into powerful calls for hope, justice, and human connection.
Led by Nellie Scott, Executive Director of the Corita ArtCenter, this talk takes a deep dive into Corita's iconic heroes and sheroes series (1968–69), created during one of America's most turbulent chapters. Through these electrifying screenprints, Corita paid tribute to figures of courage and conscience—while challenging all of us to see the world with more compassion, curiosity, and care.
Whether you're an art lover, a history buff, or someone seeking inspiration—this afternoon promises fresh discoveries about an artist whose revolutionary spirit transformed both art and activism.
