Part of CCCADI’s CROSSROADS initiative focused on artists and cultural workers in the Caribbean, this lunch talk series symbolizes the nourishment necessary to navigate our day and, consequently, to sustain our roles as artists and cultural producers.
Inspired by the Afro tradition of communal eating, “La Fiambrera'' underscores the significance of sharing nourishment with one another as a reaffirmation of belonging and community.
This inaugural talk welcomes artists La Vaughn Belle (USVI), Ahisamar Antonia (PR), and moderator Dr. Ivette Chiclana as they delve into a discussion around the acquisition of spaces. The talk aims to tap into the experiences and knowledge of our featured speakers to offer other artists who are seeking to secure spaces a clearer vision of the process and potential strategies to navigate the system.
