✨ New Works Artist Highlight ✨ Kyle Ragsdale presents his new work, Folklórico, alongside four other Indiana artists on May 30. Tickets are free but limited. Reserve today at TheCenterPresents.org/NewWorksPremiere.

Folklórico, Kyle Ragsdale’s winning visual arts piece for the New Works program, explores Mexican culture and highlights its contributions to life here in the Midwest. The concept was inspired by a mariachi and folklórico dance performance that took place here last year. Witnessing the collaboration between musicians and dancers to create something so harmonious and beautiful felt awe-inspiring, timely and important.

Following the unveiling, the painting will hang in the Payne & Mencias Palladium’s South Lobby for one year, to be viewed by thousands of patrons and other visitors.

Don't forget about our upcoming events amid all the Season Announce excitement! Next Tuesday, we'll have a community drum circle at our Luminaries presentation. Lisa Colleen will share basic rhythms as well as lots of knowledge about how drumming motivates, relaxes, educates, energizes, unites and inspires.

Tickets are just $10 at TheCenterPresents.org/LuminariesGroove. See you there!
