As part of the Michelle Angela exhibition, <a href="http://tallerpr.org/event/michelle-angela-ortiz-quizas-manana/">Quizás Mañana</a>, join Roberta Fallon, Flora Ward, and Ilana Napoli of the <a href="http://www.theartblog.org/">Artblog</a> for a series of two workshops at Taller Puertorriqueño. In the workshop you will do creative exercises that show how hanging out with art can be fun! First, you'll spend some time in the gallery looking at, discussing, and drawing the art, and then the group will wrap up by writing short haiku poems that will be published on the Artblog website.

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Artblog believes that the discussion of art, centered on beauty, truth, value, and power, makes the world a better place.</strong></p>
Artblog is an independent online publication that fosters dialog and community through commentary and discussion about art and culture. They focus primarily on the Philadelphia region and educate our community about the importance of art to civil society. Artblog raises the profile of marginalized artists—the young, minorities and women—who have been left out of the conversation. They do all this through their online publication and with programs in the community.

<em>Haremos ejercicios creativos que demuestran que visitar la galería y pasar tiempo con el arte puede ser ¡divertido! Primero pasaremos tiempo en la galería, mirando, conversando, y dibujando el arte, y luego concluiremos escribiendo haikus, poemas cortos, que seran publicados en la pagina web del Artblog. Los primeros dos talleres enfocarán en la exhibición de Roxana Pérez-Méndez, Quien a buen árbol se arrima, mientras que los dos segundos se centrará en el trabajo de Michelle Ortiz, ambas exhibiciones en la galería Taller Puertorriqueño</em>.
