Color is Life: Making Art Like Alma Thomas

Color is Life: Making Art Like Alma Thomas In-Person

Alma Thomas was a famous African-American painter from Washington DC. She was an artist, a teacher, and the first African-American to have their work included in the permanent collection of the White House! Her later art was inspired by color and light, and the emotions they can create together. Join us to learn more about her and create your own art in her unique style!
