JUNE NEWS @ THE POTENTIALIST

In the Gallery 

“You + Mɘ = Wɘ”
Gallery Reception: Saturday, June 9th 6 - 9pm
This June, come enjoy Live Music as we explore the new works by Las Vegas artist and pillar of the Las Vegas Arts community, Alexander P. Huerta in his upcoming solo art exhibition "You + Mɘ = Wɘ" presented by The Potentialist Workshop.
This exhibition will be composed of two bodies of work:
•The Vintage Urban Collection which are mixed media paintings that are black & white in theme and explore humanity and togetherness. It is where the artist examines neighborhoods and the people that populate them.
•The Radiant Collection which are mixed media paintings that are vibrant in color and mainly large bodies of work. These are a collection of the artist's thoughts in the moment.

The purpose of this exhibition is to take the viewer on a visual tour of Alexander's journey towards his truth while providing a platform for the viewer to speak their own and through such, remind locals and visitors alike the importance of unity, peace and self discovery. 
Come find your Truth...

CONVERSATION CAFE:
Building a strong community takes work, effort... and sometimes free coffee. 

The Potentialist Workshop host's a pop-up cafe' in our Art Gallery once a month, giving our awesome Reno/Tahoe/Sparks community, a place to relax, communicate, and enjoy some art. 
Each month the pop-up cafe' will be announced  a week prior to the event date. It is casual, and open to anyone. (June TBA...)
