This month's art club will explore what is needed for more people to care about Art in their personal lives and in a macro level. Whether you are an artist, an art connoisseur, an art lover or someone who wants to learn more about art, this art club brings together people who want to talk more about Art. Art is one of those words that mean different things to different people. In this club, we will learn and share more about the importance of this big word in people’s lives. This event is moderated by SF based artist Mario Pires Cordeiro and takes place on the second Saturday of every month.
