Art of Elan’s performance takes us on a journey: from the timeless music of J. S. Bach that can be found in almost every corner of the world to the vibrant sounds of composers Marco Granados, Gabriela Lena Frank, and Angelica Negrón, whose compositions all explore the intricacies of cross-cultural identities. This immersive, multisensory, and dynamic experience provides a unique perspective of how diasporic communities shape identities in new places. 5:00 pm – 5:30 pm | Conversation with Artist-in-Residence Edra Soto 5:30 pm | Q&A Edra Soto talks with Associate Curator, Guusje Sanders, about her exhibition, Graft.

A short Q&A session will follow. 6:00 pm – 6:30 pm | Tour of Narsiso Martínez: Rethinking Essential *Space limited Artist Narsiso Martínez and Executive Director, Andrew Utt, take us through the gallery to get an inside look at Martinez’s exhibition Rethinking Essential. 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm | After Party!
