HOLDING SPACE AT A TIME OF WAR IS AN ACT OF COURAGE!!
Amid the veto of the US for a cease fire resolution in the UN, we at the Missions Arts and Performance Project continue to raise our collective voices for a FREE PALESTINE.
Thank you everyone who courageously showed up at our event WITH LOVE AND SOLIDARITY FOR PALESTINE, on the day that marked the 20 Anniversary of MAPP, we did what our community does best, standing together for the dignity of human lives across the world and in our close community.
Let this movement for collective grief, joy, and healing continue creating spaces that showcase the best that our community has to offer. For the new artists looking for spaces to begin performing, for the established artists who are trying new work, and for everyone who comes together to support, curate, host, volunteer and enjoy this experience!!! To the next 20 years!! Que viva MAPP!!!
MAPP no se vende! Se ama y se defiende!

Happy Friday Familia!!! MAPP is tomorrow Saturday and we couldn’t be more excited!
We’ll have some amazing musicians, dancers, performers and visual artists sharing their creations of beauty with the neighborhood. Free to the public!
So join us in a magical evening of arts and solidarity. Come to have fun and plug into the community! MAPP always has an eye on creating a stronger thriving community, caring and resilient.
That’s why we also invite you to show your support to one of the more loving members of it, Denhi Donis -the Flower Lady-.
After 16 years of tenancy in her home Denhi has been evicted, and now she needs to find a new place to live and vacate her house by September 10th, while still recovering from two recent surgeries.
She needs and appreciates any help that our community can provide, now matter how small.
Find Links in bio.
Infinite gratitude to @CeciliaDiazCortez for her time and talent to create this beautiful video.
