Featuring Angie Pittman & Orlando Hernández
CROSSROADS (CROSSWINDS, CROSSCURRENTS, CROSSFIRES) Performance + art + poetry + music + dance + food + community. A curated series presented by Pioneers Go East Collective. Crossroads Series features artists who explore new genres and known performance and art-making modes to share their creative practices with other artists and their audiences. Each evening we witness different generations of artists dealing with actual, day-to-day, contemporary challenges to further discussion between artists and to activate a network of exchange and inclusion with social and artistic intervention.

Through these visceral Black womanist traditions, the work slips in and out of deep listening, seeing, improvisation, and truth telling.
ORLANDO HERNÁNDEZ
