Hands-on with Intergenerational Installation

In conjunction with the exhibition Three Lines, join us for a hands-on workshop led by 2023 CARD Fellow Tina Villadolid where participants are invited to explore what they have inherited through the generations, and what remains a mystery. During this interactive workshop, we will create a collective ceremonial installation that celebrates the uniqueness and commonalities of our identities. We encourage you to come with your family and friends to share in this intergenerational activation. 

No experience necessary. All materials provided

About Tina Villadolid 

Tina Villadolid is a second-generation Filipina American New Yorker. She graduated from Amherst College in 1983 with a BA in Fine Arts, then moved to New England where she became a mom, was a small-scale pig farmer and fronted a rock band. Moving to Santa Barbara, CA, Villadolid transitioned into being the local art museum’s outreach teacher, bringing the museum into the neighborhoods guerrilla style. Twenty-three years later, she was teaching the children of former students. This generational work with the marginalized population of a wealthy community threw into question her own life’s relationships to predominantly white spaces and institutions. She returned to graduate school to unlearn ideologies of systemic power hierarchies. In 2023 she graduated with an MFA in Social Practice from George Washington University, and was the recipient of the Nashman Center Prize for Community Engagement in the Arts and Design and the award for Outstanding MFA Work in Social Practice. In 2024, Villadolid will fulfill a Mary G. Stange research fellowship at the University of Michigan, and an artist residency at MASS MoCA.
