"When We Gather" Film Screening

When We Gather

A free online screening of "When We Gather" and the accompanying behind-the-scenes special, in anticipation of its live performance debut.

When We Gather (2021) is a five-minute film that celebrates the women who have played an elemental role in the progress of the United States and offers a call to create a path forward for the leaders of the future. Conceived by renowned artist María Magdalena Campos-Pons, in collaboration with LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs and Okwui Okpokwasili, the film is directed by Codie Elaine Oliver and produced over an eight-week period by San Francisco based gallerist Wendi Norris.&quot;When We Gather: Together&quot; is a 35-minute special that contextualizes the themes of the film: heal, unite, create. It features creative conversations, diverse artistic performances, and behind-the-scenes interviews with the director and performers, and an array of arts and education professionals. This special program is co-produced and hosted by Dr. Nikki A. Greene, a tenured professor of art history at Wellesley College and author of an upcoming book that prominently features Campos-Pons.After a successful screening run of its short film version in over 15 cities across the country in 2021, &quot;When We Gather&quot; will be performed live for the first time at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. on April 30th, 2022.
