Interactive Workshop: "Between Worlds: Art, Altered States & The Practice of Becoming"

Description: What happens when a former CPA follows a vision into the realm of shamanic art, altered states, and ancestral memory? Jacqueline López has lived that crossing, and she's bringing it to District House. In this experiential session, she shares how visionary insight, symbolic language, and embodied practice can be woven into everyday life, drawing from mask-making, installation art, alchemy, and cross-cultural spiritual traditions. This is a grounded, human-centered exploration of transformation that honors both the mystical and the practical.

When: Wednesday, September 16, 2026 from 5pm to 9pm (Workshop at 6:30pm)

Where: LoDo Studios, 216 E. Gutierrez Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101
(Please only park across the street on the Office Max side of the lot.)

Members are Free to attend The District House evenings, and are prioritized when we reach capacity.

Guests Welcome to purchase $25 tickets to The District House evenings.

FACILITATOR BIO

Facilitator: Jacqueline López | Artist, Educator & Founder of Shamanist Art

Jacqueline López is a visual artist and educator born on the border of Paraguay and Brazil whose work weaves Hispanic-Portuguese and Guaraní Indigenous iconography into a deeply personal visual language rooted in healing and ancestral memory. A former CPA turned artist and activist, she works across painting, masks, installations, and altars to explore spiritual lineage, folk medicine traditions, and the energies of transformation. Drawing from alchemical practice, astrological symbolism, and her mother's tradition of using dreams and visions as creative instruction, she builds contemporary sacred spaces that hold grief, celebration, and becoming. She regards the energies gathered at her altars as kin, companions and guides she returns to for grounding, clarity, and renewal.
