Join us for Coffee & Conversation at DFAC, where art and insight blend over a great cup of coffee. Sponsored by DFAC’s Sterling Society — with coffee generously provided by Lane’s Lemonade — each session features a guest artist sharing their creative journey. Curatorial Director Danny Olda leads a Q&A to explore the story behind the artist and their work.
Following the conversation, guests will be invited to view Jackson’s paintings featured in The Tender Weight exhibition. Dallas is an accomplished professor and painter whose work has been exhibited in galleries and museums, including the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art, which recently acquired one of his pieces for its permanent collection. His artwork is both visually striking and thought-provoking.
