SUPER SÁBADO: Nuyorican Life
Celebrate art, community, and everyday life at Super Sábado: Nuyorican Life, a free, all-ages afternoon!
A free, all-ages afternoon celebrating art, and everyday life, this cultural gathering invites families and visitors to engage with the groundbreaking photography of Sophie Rivera through hands-on, participatory experiences. Guided gallery conversations, drop-in portrait photography with Kids with Cameras (@kidswithcamerasnyc), art-making activities, movement workshops, and storytelling sessions encourage participants to explore Nuyorican visual culture through Rivera’s portraits, documentary images, experimental self-portraits, and photographs of New York City’s subway and graffiti scenes from the late 1970s—activating the museum as a space of shared learning, memory, and joy.
Join Miguel Aparicio (@Aparicioarts) for New York City Dances: To the Sounds of the Barrio, an all-ages movement workshop inspired by Rivera’s Double Exposure, blending salsa, jazz, and hip-hop to explore how Latino culture shapes New York City. Experience The Journey of Pura Belpré’s Tales by Teatro SEA (@teatrosea), an interactive puppet show bringing beloved folktales to life through storytelling and performance.
At 5:00 PM, continue the celebration in El Teatro with the AFRO LATIN JAZZ ORCHESTRA: America at 250. Register here for the concert.
