Artist Talk | Lum Art Magazine Conversations | DJ Javier & Ryan P. Cruz

Thursday, June 23 | 5:30-6:30 PM
MCASB, 653 Paseo Nuevo
Join us for a FREE talk with artist DJ Javier and writer Ryan P. Cruz, as they discuss breaking through the noise in visual art and journalism, respectively, and the cultural contexts that have informed their work. Two Santa Barbara natives, both under 31, Javier and Cruz are part of the new crop of creatives that are helping to shape contemporary culture in the area.

This talk is inspired by the feature “Ba’hala ‘na: DJ Javier” published in the latest Lum Art Magazine, and written by Cruz, Lum Arts Writing Fellow.

Debra Herrick, Lum Editor-in-Chief, will moderate.
