About this Event
PVD World Music Institute host the second opening day of the gallery event, “Finding the Spirit of Inanga: A Gallery Traditional Music Instruments” featuring musical instruments from around the world at Machines with Magnets, located at 400 Main Street in Pawtucket, RI 02860 on Thursday May 26th, 2022.
This event will provide a cultural learning experience, taking visitors on a spectacular journey through time and space, featuring unique and significant musical instruments and other music related artifacts from around the globe. This interactive musical showcase will also offer the exciting opportunity to learn directly from the musicians who own these beautiful pieces of cultural history through three specially curated music education sessions. Dr. Silas Pinto will join us on May 26th, 2022 for a demonstration and Q&A regarding the Berimbau and the Atebaque. Our goal is to foster an appreciation for timeless musical traditions and share the rich musical history and knowledge carried by our master musicians and their instruments.
Curating this event is a part of PVD World Music Institute’s ongoing mission to celebrate, promote and enrich the musical traditions and arts of African refugees and immigrants in Rhode Island for present and future generations. We thank our partners, whose generous support has made this event possible: Machines with Magnets, The Center for the Study of Slavery and Justice, Rhode Island State Council on the Arts and the City of Providence's Department for Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging.
We hope you can join us.
