Lua Project moves like a story carried across generations, bridging Mexican song forms with Appalachian traditions and narratives. They describe themselves as “cultural pollinators,” creating music that draws from the past while staying in motion. Their songs trace family history, community, labor, and loss, weaving memory into something living and present.Curated by Duke music professor, Sophia Enriquez, whose work explores the intersections of Latino and Appalachian music, migration, and regional culture, this evening highlights music as both cultural memory and evolving practice.
Arts on East concerts will take place every Wednesday from May 27 through June 24 on Duke’s East Campus. Previously called Music in the Gardens, this series has been renamed to reflect its new location. This year, each event will be hosted by Stormie Daie and curated by a different Durham-based partner, highlighting the breadth of artistic voices that shape the city.
Each Arts on East concert is free and open to all – no tickets are required. Events will feature a community market organized by Kamara Thomas and food will be available to purchase from The Palace International and food truck partners. Visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, picnics, and blankets.
