Faces & Façades is an upcoming exhibition at the Morris-Jumel Mansion showcasing new artworks by Andrea Arroyo. The project is a love letter to the uptown community and the women who hold it together. The paintings in the exhibition blend organic and non-organic forms, taking inspiration from two sources: the female body and the architectural elements of uptown buildings.
Join us at Morris-Jumel Mansion for the opening reception, where you’ll see the exhibition and hear the artist speak about her work. Light refreshments will be provided. Free registration on Eventbrite.
Faces & Façades is made possible in part with support from the Artist Employment Program, Creatives Rebuild New York, UMEZ Arts Engagement, Mano a Mano: Mexican Culture Without Borders, and the Puffin Foundation.

Wine and Beer will be available to purchase via donation, sponsored by Cabrini Wines & Spirits and Tampopo Ramen.
Dr. Ramona Hernandez, director of the CUNY Dominican Studies Institute joins as the Guest Lecturer for the Morris-Jumel Mansion’s October Virtual Parlor Chat.
