Jackie Mckown is a Toledo, Ohio native who received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Bowling Green State University located in Bowling Green, Ohio, in 2013. She is currently working on her Master of Humanities in Art and Visual Media at Tiffin University, located in Tiffin, Ohio. The art mediums she enjoys using are printmaking, oil paint, watercolor, acrylic, and ink. She also is a sculptor and works in mold making, carving stone, and resin creations. She enjoys working on art with science fiction and fantasy themes influenced by her mixed Peruvian and European cultural heritage. She is also influenced by science fiction and fantasy pulp magazines from the 1960s-80s. Her work reflects mystical worlds, dimensions, and people with hints of the occult and magic.
Schools, boy scouts and all groups are welcome to learn more about Latino culture with special hands on cultural tour.
Please know that during this time, we are still committed in providing students and individuals opportunities to learn about the Latin culture. During COVID19, we are able to host groups but there may be limitations in the types of activities and # of participants. Please contact us if you are interested and we would be more than happy to see how we can make it work!
Join us for a little latin culture whether it be cooking, art or dance! We provide an interactive cultural experience to private groups such as schools, organizations, after school programs, daycare centers, etc.
We can offer up to a four hour tour that allows youth and attendees to learn about SQACC's mission and what we do. They will work with our Art Coordinator on a latin inspired art project and then head into the kitchen to make their own lunch! We can also offer dance classes, a visit to our bees, that produce our "Honey from the Hood" and more.
Cultural tours can be tailored to your group depending on the size and length of time you desire.
We can accommodate groups from 10 to over 50. Questions? Contact us below or scroll down and download the registration form for pricing and other info.
