We all have individual perspectives. Forty years ago, through his unique style of painting, artist Oscar de Mejo depicted seminal scenes from the American Revolution. These 15 works are housed in the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation permanent collection. To help us build with the future in mind, we welcome new traditions to be developed with the next generation through two hands-on “making” sessions.

10 a.m. – 12 p.m. – Join us for delicious drinks and discussions diving into America’s hard-won democracy. Leave your mark as we reference a series of de Mejo’s paintings that underline one of many themes related to the upcoming America 250th commemoration. You are invited to creatively express a reflection of what the theme of LIBERTY means to you today. Pre-registration is requested for this program to ensure that we have the appropriate number of art supplies.
