We'll be pausing Emilio Fernández's crime musical drama, Victims of Sin, to draw striking frames. This gem of Golden Era Mexican cinema will provide lots of dramatic black and white frames and dancing imagery to ignite the creative imagination.

Basic materials (pencils, paper, erasers) will be provided. You may bring your own materials, but please no fume-creating paint or paint pens. Watercolor, ink and gouache are fine.

This is a self-led event; there will be no instruction or feedback. However, there will be an opportunity at the end of the session to look at others' drawings and show your own. 

NR, 84 mins., 1951. Subtitles and Closed Captions (CC) in English. Due to pauses for drawing, the full film will not be shown.


Exercise your power of imagination with programs that encourage hands-on projects for adults. For craft programs, all materials are provided, unless noted.

Connect to engaging discussions and performances related to the Latinx community.

¡VIVA! at the Library is a celebration of Latinx heritage, cultures and traditions. San Francisco has a rich Latinx heritage that is highlighted in a diverse array of exciting programs for all ages, from Spanish/bilingual storytimes to cooking classes, author talks to art and cultural presentations.


This program is sponsored by Friends of the San Francisco Public Library.
