    Crosstown Arts, East Gallery, Crosstown Concourse 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    Students will study a piece from Akirash's work in Asiko: Moments, on display in the East Gallery. Then they'll sketch inside his gallery exhibit.

    Afterward, in the East Atrium, students will finish their work with acrylic paint. They will do this for three weeks, completing 2-3 works, which will be displayed in a pop-up gallery during the final week (December 15-20).

    This three-part workshop will be held on December 3, 10, and 17. This workshop is for students in the 8th-12th grades.
