This town hall style event will be a community-wide conversation on the challenges we face as we try make our work more relevant and accessible to Spanish-speaking young people.

This forum will establish a safe space to engage in a discussion regarding Spanish-language creative arts education in Austin. We want to know: What is your experience with Spanish-Language arts education? What goes well? What can be better? What can we do to take our work to the next level?

The evening will be facilitated by Lori Navarrete and Marina Islas of the Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center.

MINDPOP’s Flashdrive series offers learning experiences for arts providers in the Austin area to help strengthen the impact of creative learning in our classrooms and communities.
