The RLAC Experiment
This experiment aims to create a rapid response team of QPOC artists in the vein of Culture Strike and Just Seeds in the heart of Dallas, Texas.
RLAC will host pop up printmaker workshops at little cost to realize visions, speak to their coraje and raise awareness. We partner with existing grassroots efforts engaged in the work in the occupied territories known as Dallas, Texas.
Interested in a drop-in workshop or art event?
