Big Brain Lecture at Lola’s Lounge
Join Sacramento City College Art History Professor Nicole Lazo as we explore what the art and architecture left behind by the Olmec can tell us about their world. We’ll examine their monumental architectural complexes, including the first pyramid structure in Mesoamerica, their altars, and, of course, the colossal carved stone heads that have become one of the most recognizable creations of the ancient Americas.
