Diego Rivera is often best known today as the husband of Frida Kahlo. However, during his life, he was an internationally famous artist born and raised in Mexico. You will learn how he and his friends developed a new art style, with examples provided. Rivera was especially renowned for his murals and had tumultuous relationships with several women. We will begin with his birth and early art and continue until we run out of time, discussing some of his works in detail. Frida Kahlo was born in Mexico and endured many difficult events in her life, including childhood polio, a serious bus accident, a long recovery, and several miscarriages. She used these experiences, along with personal symbolism and Surrealism, to express her suffering through her work.

Free parking is available in our parking lot on the northeast corner of Center Street and 1st Avenue, as well as on surrounding streets Center Street, 1st Avenue, and Main Streets.
