Event Details

Session 11: Stained Glass Storytelling

The composition of an image can tell a story in a single frame. For this project, participants will play with light and color similar to stained glass. Using a simple symbol or simple world, students will create a colorful piece activated by light that tells a story about something important to them or who they are, inspired by the Artist Raul De Nieves. Raul De Nieves is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. Immigrating to San Diego from Michoacan Mx from an early age, De Nieves reflects on the craft traditions they witnessed from an early age from their community. De Nieves' works feature bright and colorful abstract sculptures and stained glass windows that focus on storytelling about their past and experiences.


Creative Collective promotes wellness and enrichment through art-making experiences. Join our open-ended art-making program where you are free to be creative and expressive with many different forms of art! You can participate in meditative art forms that enhance mental and physical health or you can participate in more advanced technical and directed projects led by our facilitators and visiting artists!  

All supplies will be provided. Registration required. Adults are welcome.  

This program will run on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month in the Mary Hollis Conference room, located on the 1st floor of the Central Library.  (Next door to the Library Shop).
