Target Sundays at CAAM – Telling our stories, experiencing our art & sharing our history!
Through the eyes and voices of traditional and contemporary artists, community leaders, cultural historians, activists, and educators, this once-a-month Sunday cultural experience celebrates the diverse influences and achievements of art and culture from the African American Diaspora.
Featured during the 2008 season will be a special mask making workshop featuring well known Los Angeles based artist, Elliot Pinkney. Each month Mr. Pinkney will lead participants in molding masks with a quick hardening clay. Design your own mask and take it home with you!
