? Shadowbox Insect Art with La Chicharra
Celebrate Earth Day at the Briscoe and learn how nature inspires art! Dive into the fascinating world of insect artistry with Connie Zamorano of San Antonio’s La Chicharra. Learn about entomology – the study of bugs – and how it inspires her creature creations.
Chicharras, or cicadas, are known for their dramatic life cycles, and Zamorano frequently uses them in her art. Zamarano invites everyone to discover the creative possibilities of often-overlooked natural materials. Listen as she shares stories about her foraging adventures, how she harvests from her own garden, and the process of collecting specimens ethically.
Guests can take home their own native wildflower seed starter pack to create their own gardens to observe and learn from.
