Museo de las Ancestras

Image
" On June 22nd, we witnessed Museo de las Ancestras, a community performance that brought together living statues of important and celebrated women in history who visited our city to share their stories and memories, challenging the colonial histories that have dominated the public imagination for years. The performance invited neighbors and audiences to be immersed in a magical realism intervention to recognize the contributions of these women across time, engage in community gathering, public education, and poetry. Presented as an open rehearsal at Hope Artiste Village, this performance was organized by PCL artist Shey Rivera Ríos @sheyriv @studio.loba_ along with their key partners Sussy Santana @lapoetera and Arte Latino New England (ALNE) @arte_latino_of_new_england , and various local artists. Swipe to meet the ancestras and see some moments from the performance!" Providence Commemoration Lab                      ...
