UNBOUND: a performance ritual

UNBOUND is a performance ritual and community-powered project that honors the Genízaro people and uplifts their legacies. Genízaros were Native people of many tribes, often women and children, who were captured and forced into slave labor during the Spanish colonization of present-day New Mexico. Their stories are often left out of a contemporary understanding of New Mexican history.

SHOWTIMES
Sat, Feb 8, 7pm - 9pm
Sun, Feb 9, 2pm - 4pm

Dancing Earth

This program is supported by the TCA Community Arts Fellowship and the National Endowment for the Arts.
