Red Calaca Studio

Community engagement fuels my creative process. From public murals, to the Papalote Project workshops, to The Magic Kite, I have done some of my best work when working with my community. When the food truck scene started to grow in popularity in Charlotte, I had an idea! What if I had an "Art Truck” that I could use to bring my art into the streets and neighborhoods of the city, taking art directly to the people. Last month, I took a big step in making this dream a reality by purchasing a 24' step van. The truck was a great find – it was built as a demonstration vehicle by the company I purchased it from, and it has great "bones” for my project.
