About the facilitator:

Laura King, artist and resident of West Harlem, is passionate about expressing city life by drawing.

In 2024, her drawings have been shown in NYC exhibitions at The Factory, Culture Lab LIC, Diego Salazar, The Atlantic, and soon (Oct-Nov) Art on the Avenue. She was also an invited panelist during LICA’s Drawing Beyond the Surface exhibition May 2024, Seeing and Feeling: A Conversation about the Medium of Drawing. @diditellyouidraw
