Finding One's Ceremony - The Gathering

Join us for Finding One’s Ceremony: The Gathering, a five-hour celebration bringing together artists, scholars, musicians, and filmmakers in a vibrant exploration of memory, identity, and cultural legacy.

This immersive program unfolds through a live conversation between artists Zonia Zena and Diana Larrea with art historian Carol Damian and curator Aldeide Delgado, alongside, Sumaq Tusuy Dance Activation, by Lucía Morales featuring musicians and original arrangements by the Andean music groups Kuyayky and Estampa Criolla de Peter Zegarra. The event also includes a film screening curated by Diana Larrea, featuring works by Peruvian women filmmakers.

Among the featured films is Julia Se Revela, a biographical documentary on Julia Chambi López, regarded as the first Andean and Peruvian woman photographer by 2023 WOPHA Research Fellow, Claudia Holgado López. Tracing photographs and personal objects, the film reveals Julia—daughter, sister, artist, photographer, politician, and devoted to Cusco—through the stories, places, and people that continue to remember her.

Taking place on April 25, 2026, the program coincides with the 492nd anniversary of the Spanish founding of Jauja, historically recognized as the first capital of Peru. This temporal convergence deepens the event’s reflection on ceremony, history, and the enduring presence of Andean cultural memory.
