Celebrate the opening of the newest exhibition in Cessna Gallery: Celebrating Regional Creatives with a talk by printmaker Marco Hernandez. Drawing from his experiences as a Mexican immigrant living in the United States, his prints in Sin Perder A Mis Raíces (Without Losing My Roots) reflect the complexity and depth of his Mexican heritage. Hernandez is Assistant Teaching Professor of Print Media and Foundations Coordinator at Wichita State University.
