Multidisciplinary artist Karla Lagunas presents American Girl, her MFA thesis exhibition exploring the weight of the American Dream—its myths, contradictions, and costs—through performance, video, painting, and installation. It runs March 3-14.

On the 7th, it's the exhibition’s centerpiece. I've Been Draggin’ That Wagon is a performance activating the space through movement, material tension, and themes of survival and identity.

March 11, from 6 to 8 p.m. MFA students Bailey Anderson and Karla Lagunas speak in the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art Auditorium
