🎉 Celebrating #HispanicHeritageMonth! Glory Paredes - Artist #AACPSFamily #CelebrateDiversity #AACPSCelebrates #MesDeLaHerenciaHispana

over 1 year ago, Anne Arundel County Public Schools

Glory Paredes - Artist I arrived in Annapolis from El Salvador in 2004 and began my artist residency at Maryland Hall four years ago. Over the years I’ve provided art classes and workshops for AACPS students and families in the Annapolis area at their schools or community centers. During the summer, I partner with Marshall Learning Center to provide art classes for ESL children and youth. I also work as an immersive Spanish and visual arts teacher at the Wildhearts Academy for homeschooled children. For me, art is about learning and growing, and educating others. I began volunteering at an early age, and as an artist I enjoy working with children the most. It’s important for children to learn about and have exposure to art. I want to help educate children and adults that art is a way for Latinos to have a voice and to be heard as Latinos, for others to hear us and see us. Exhibits featuring Glory Paredes: Sept. 9 - Oct. 31, Latino Art Gallery Annapolis City Hall, Annapolis MD Sept. 15 - Oct. 15, “Perspectivas Latinas” Pascal Center for Performing Arts Anne Arundel Community College, Arnold MD Oct. 10 - Jan. 2, “Abriendo Caminos” Hispanic Heritage Exhibition Maryland Hall, Annapolis MD

Glory Paredes - Artista Llegué a Annapolis desde El Salvador en 2004 y comencé mi residencia artística en Maryland Hall hace cuatro años. A lo largo de los años he impartido clases y talleres de arte para estudiantes y familias de AACPS en el área de Annapolis, en sus escuelas y centros comunitarios. Durante el verano, trabajo con el Marshall Learning Center para impartir clases de arte a niños y jóvenes de inglés como segundo idioma. También trabajo como maestra inmersiva de español y artes visuales en la Academia Wildhearts para niños educados en casa. Para mí, el arte consiste en aprender y crecer, y en educar a los demás. Empecé a ser voluntaria desde muy joven y, como artista, lo que más me gusta es trabajar con niños. Es importante que los niños conozcan y estén expuestos al arte. Quiero ayudar a educar a niños y adultos en que el arte es una forma para que los latinos tengamos voz y seamos escuchados como latinos, para que otros nos escuchen y nos vean. Exposiciones con Glory Paredes: 9 Sept. - 31 Oct., Latino Art Gallery Annapolis City Hall, Annapolis MD 15 Sept. - 15 Oct., “Perspectivas Latinas” Pascal Center for Performing Arts Anne Arundel Community College, Arnold MD 10 Oct. - 2 Enero, “Abriendo Caminos” Hispanic Heritage Exhibition Maryland Hall, Annapolis MD

🎉 Celebrating #HispanicHeritageMonth! GALA Hispanic Theatre - Washington, D.C. #CelebrateDiversity #AACPSCelebrates

over 1 year ago, Anne Arundel County Public Schools

GALA Hispanic Theatre - Washington DC The GALA (Grupo de Artistas Latino Americanos) Hispanic Theatre is a hallmark of Spanish and Latin American culture and performing arts. The Theatre was founded in 1976 by the Argentinian Hugo Medrano and his American-born wife, Rebecca Read Medrano. The creation of the GALA Theatre aimed to fill the cultural void of Spanish-speaking plays in the Washington area. Since its conception, GALA has played a vital role in showcasing the diversity of Latino artistry and culture. “GALA provides opportunities for the Latino artist, educates youth, and engages the entire community in an exchange of ideas and perspectives.” The Theatre moved through several areas before finding its home in 2005 at Tivoli Square in the Columbia Heights neighborhood of Washington, DC. For information on current and future events, visit https://www.galatheatre.org/.
