Untold Stories Painting
ASWSU Global partnered with WSU Pullman’s Chicanx Latinx Student Center (CLSC) and Global Connections to present The Untold Stories: Using Art as a Tool for Revolution and Healing! To celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, they hosted muralist Jose “Nuke” Montalvo, who led a presentation and workshop demonstrating art as a tool for social revolution, change, and healing.
As a thank you to all the sponsors, Nuke painted a special collaborative piece of gratitude for hosting the event.
