    Double Scoop Podcast Episode 28—Ruby Barrientos + Jon Gomez

    "I feel like a lot of museums and galleries talk about diversity, but when I go to these spaces, I don't really see that representation of someone like me," said Ruby Barrientos, a Salvadoran artist who lives in Reno. I wanted to bring art to the people, and what's a better way than to just bring it to them directly?" Ruby is the lead organizer of the exhibition “Llegaron Los Guanacxs” featuring work by herself and fellow Salvadorans Leslie Chiguichon, Jon Gomez, and Jahi Mazariego. Host: Noah Glick
