Fiesta Cultural is this Friday, and we have a special treat for the early visitors!

Local artist Paz Méndez specializes in linocut/woodcut printmaking, and he hand-carved a printing block of the Fiesta Cultural logo (designed by Erick Wonderly Varela). He’ll be at Fiesta with an ink press from Whiteaker Printmakers, and the first 100 people to come to him will receive a free print, created onsite!

Join us 5:30-10 p.m. Friday, Sept. 4 at the Farmers Market Pavilion. Fiesta Cultural is co-produced by Lane Arts Council and Cultural Services, City of Eugene. Learn more: lanearts.org/fiesta-cultural/

Paz Méndez is a self-taught artist who creates vibrant images full of movement using eco-friendly materials. His artwork is inspired by the natural world in the Pacific Northwest and his Central American heritage. All of his art prints are carved by hand, inked by hand and printed by hand.
