“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.
