County that presents personal and universal stories and invites broad public participation. Guests will be invited to create their own portraits using artistic techniques inspired by the process of artists in the LACMA and LA Metro exhibitions. Artist Chelle Barbour, whose work is featured in both exhibitions, will facilitate the workshop. Co-presented in partnership with LACMA. Health screening required.
