misc_none.png 6:00 PM  -  7:00 PM Making Purposeful Public Art with Chenlin Cai Download Event Info Download Event Info Tell a Friend
    Contact: The Library     eventscoordinator@dcls.org
   

Join us for an evening with Chenlin Cai, an artist, activist, teacher, and Commissioner to the Pennsylvania Governor’s Advisory Commission on Asian Pacific American Affairs. View some of Cai’s artworks and join in on a discussion about artistic expression, public art, and community mural-making.

Cai’s work is truly something to behold – his Landscape series places intricately minute scenes of natural beauty inside man-made objects, things you might find in the kitchen or around a biology lab. With his work, he “hopes to beautify the community and speak for the well-being of society through more diverse forms of visual art.”

Outside of these smaller confines, Cai also believes “that art can not only bring aesthetic pleasure to people, but more importantly, [that] art can be used as a means to speak for public affairs.” His critically acclaimed public mural projects promote Asian American and Pacific Islander culture and traditions and have been inspired by opinions from the community in and around Philadelphia.

1 hour. For ages 15+. Registration is required. 

    Location: East Shore Area Library
        There are 50 spaces available.
