About this Event
With funding from the City of Santa Monica's Community Access and Participation Grant, Suárez Dance Theater has commissioned choreographer/performer: Bernard Brown/ bbmoves, poet/songwriter: Jessa Calderon and dance group: Primera Generación Dance Collective to create films in collaboration with film-maker Leonardo Rivas. Each artist will highlight the site of a different history of Black, Native and Latinx people in Santa Monica, amplifying stories that are often erased and ignored.
