Tony Ortega at SMA this Week

Tony Ortega is on campus all week to guide our LS and MS art students as they create a mural for St. Mary's Academy. The theme of the mural is how we come together as a community at SMA. We gather for prayer and mass, to serve others in our community, to learn, to play sports and to socialize. The mural will emphasize all of these aspects of our community while incorporating our Loretto Values: Faith, Community, Justice and Respect.
Tony Ortega was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He currently lives in Denver and teaches painting at Regis University. He holds a BA and MFA in art from CU Boulder. Ortega’s work can be found in public and private collections including the Denver Art Museum, Los Angeles County Art Museum, Museo del Barrio in NYC, and the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
