“No Culture without Community” is a call to all Peruvian diaspora to connect in the month of July and August during the Peruvian Independence holiday in a more in-depth nature that ties not only the culture but the land the people back home protect. We seek to understand beyond being passive consumers but as activists, organizers, to connect with our culture to change our landscape and empower our community.

No hay cultura sin comunidad” es un llamado a toda la diáspora peruana en NYC para conectar durante los meses de julio y agosto, durante las fiestas patrias del Perú, de una manera más profunda que vincule no solo la cultura, sino también nuestros pueblos que protegen la tierra. Buscamos comprendernos más allá de consumidores pasivos, sino como activistas y organizadores de nuestra cultura para transformar nuestro panorama y empoderar a nuestra comunidad.

Inwood Hill Park – Irrevocable Conditions: a Play Repertoire for Pride

Irrevocable Conditions: a Play Repertoire for Pride is Inspired by James Baldwin’s quote, “Perhaps home is not a place but simply an irrevocable condition.” 

Through 3 weeks and 4 plays, Irrevocable Conditions spends Pride Month exploring the queer community’s conditions of home: all of the plays being done are intimate in nature, and lend themselves to being performed in a true DIY sense a.k.a in an NYC apartment.
