Mini Book + Art: Marisol McDonald Doesn’t Match

Tuesday, October 1 / 3:30PM-5PM

October 1

Book: Marisol McDonald Doesn’t Match by Monica Brown + special exhibition Art: The Body Says, I Am a Fiesta: The Figure in Latin American Art

Summary: Marisol McDonald has flaming red hair and nut-brown skin. Polka dots and stripes are her favorite combination. She prefers peanut butter and jelly burritos in her lunch box. And don’t even think of asking her to choose one or the other activity at recess—she’ll just be a soccer playing pirate princess, thank you very much. To Marisol McDonald, these seemingly mismatched things make perfect sense together.
