Good morning, Redwood City!
GuateMaya art
The works of Mayan artist Lorenzo Cruz Sunu are on display now at the Downtown Library through Saturday, Oct. 22. Cruz was born in the Mayan village of San Pedro La Laguna. In this tiny Guatemalan town, the people speak Tz'utujil and Spanish is often their second language. The art exhibit will showcase some of Cruz's colorful works depicting the "espaldas" (backs) of Guatemalan women, each wearing traditional clothing called "hupiles." You can see more of his art here. And here. Many of his works are for sale. For more information, visit the city website.
