Mila Garcia: Entre Raices
July – October 2026 @ Aurora Libraries
Locations:
Aurora Central Library, 14949 E Alameda Pkwy, Aurora, CO 80012
Hoffman Library, 1298 Peoria St, Aurora, CO 80011
BMoCA and artist Mila Garcia present Entre Raices at Aurora Central Library and Hoffman Library. The large-scale drawings featured in both libraries stem from concepts of inbetweenness Garcia visits combining inspirations from the different places she has called home while still forging through. In her playful and confident mark-making, Garcia guides us with varied drawing media in works larger-than-life, and quite literally proportionally larger than most of its viewers.

About the Artist
Mila Garcia was raised in Uruguay, by the ocean, and currently lives and works in Denver, Colorado. Garcia’s creative process is spontaneous and intuitive; it is an ongoing conversation between her internal world and the canvas. Her work reflects an evolving visual dialogue rooted in emotion, relationship, and exploration; one shaped by her upbringing, personal history, and experiences both in Uruguay and the United States.
