Adriana Barrios Artist Talk

Join us on Friday, March 12, 2021 at 5pm on Facebook or YouTube for a livestream, interactive artist talk and Q&A with ALL Studio Artist Adriana Barrios, moderated by Emily Arthur, Chair of Printmaking, UW-Madison Art Department. Adriana was the 2019 ALL Prize recipient as a third-year MFA student, and, in 2020, she received the prestigious Forward Art Prize from the Woman Artists Forward Fund. Studio artists at ALL are an important part of our community who get involved on many different levels. In addition to seeing her professional career flourish, we're proud to work with Adriana on upcoming curatorial projects that will amplify underrepresented voices in printmaking.

Adriana recently shared, "Working in my new studio space at ALL has allowed me to set up a dedicated workspace for my practice.

It means so much to me to be part of the community here at ALL and I look forward to a time when we can celebrate and share new experiences together in the new building." ​
