Join Dr. Cristiano Pereira as he instructs young artists in Spanish while teaching drawing, painting and other areas of art in his Spanish Immersion Art Classes. Dr. Pereira is a Latino from Brazil who’s native language is Portuguese but he also speaks fluent Spanish and English. Dr. Pereira is the Special Initiatives Director for Go Art!. Pereira received a PhD in Art from State University of Rio de Janeiro and a MFA in Painting from University at Buffalo. As a Latinx visual artist based in WNY since 2013, his artworks have been shown in several group and solo shows in WNY including Burchfield Penney Art Center and Niagara Arts & Cultural Center. Prior to Go Art! Pereira has been teaching in different universities including Daemen University, Medaille University and SUNY Erie. Born in Brazil, Pereira founded the Art school Estudio Belas Artes in 2004, personally teaching Art classes, curating art shows and leading a team of three teachers for more than 20 years.
