After a performance from Liberato Kani at Gallery Art Bar (6pm-8:30pm), join us for a post-performance reception and conversation with artist Liberato at Encanto Restaurant beginning at 9:00pm. This informal gathering offers a unique opportunity to meet the artist, engage in dialogue about his creative practice, and reflect on the themes and methods present in his work. Liberato will share insights into his process, discuss the cultural and conceptual foundations of his performance, and invite conversation with attendees in a relaxed, salon-style environment. Light refreshments provided. *This is a CEU-eligible event for LCSW/LSW, LCPC/LPC and is ideal for artists, educators, social workers, and cultural workers interested in embodied performance, interdisciplinary practice, and the role of art in cultural storytelling. This event covers the cultural competency requirement for licensure in the state of Illinois. The first 20 CEU registrants are eligible for FREE CEUs.
