About this Event
Houston in Color invites artists, creatives, and cultural catalysts into a conversation about Culture Bearers and how this is influencing our work.
Historically, we have seen how many of our cultural treasures and cultural hubs were made possible by visionary artists or collectives who built a vision or responded to a community need for greater opportunity or possibilities. Their chosen ways of working centered stories, dance, song, craft, and creative expression to reinforce community relationships and strengthen a vision for an empowered future.
This practice is similar to what other communities have described as Culture Bearers. Creative leaders who skillfully weave relationships, networks, and systems to build a community that feeds intergenerational possibilities, connects histories to exciting futures.
This invitation is non-exclusive. While this conversation centers Latiné, Latino/a and Hispanic community voices, self-identified community-based creatives are welcome to participate in this and other scheduled sessions.
Please see the first community conversation (October 6) published here at Houston in Color’s Youtube Channel for an introduction and grounding.
