Doors open at 6:30pm. The Muse begins at 7:00pm in the NoMAA Gallery.
Join us for The Muse: Hair Stories, with special guest speaker Dr. Niria E. Leyva-Gutiérrez, Executive Director of the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance (NoMAA). In conjunction with NoMAA’s 16th annual Women in the Heights Exhibition, Hair: Untangling Identity, The Muse presents Hair Stories. Through art, reflection, and the sharing of personal stories and experience, we will explore how hair identifies & informs our lives — for better or worse!
The Muse is a monthly program dedicated to celebrating inspiration, the arts, and community. It brings together open-minded artists and art lovers to explore the many ways inspiration, or The Muse, elevates our daily lives. Through shared human experiences, creative expression, and a deep love for the arts, we reflect on life’s biggest questions, uncovering new meaning in the world around us.
This event is free with registration, and light refreshments will be provided. All are welcome as we give back to those who have given us so much.

NoMAA Labs: Workshops – Intro to Gouache Painting
Join us for NoMAA Labs: Workshops , a monthly workshop and networking series hosted by the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance!
Dive into the vibrant world of gouache painting with Adaley Munoz in an hour-long exploration of this versatile medium. Start with a 15-minute breakdown of what gouache is, the surfaces it works best on, and tips for achieving the right consistency for opacity and layering. Then, use a curated selection of beginner-friendly reference images to create one to two finished works on watercolor paper. Whether you’re an artist looking to expand your practice or a beginner eager to try something new, you’ll leave with completed artworks, an informational leaflet about gouache, and the joy of a new creative experience!
