Bullerengue and Beyond: Learning the Palenques of the South East Caribbean

These were entire communities developed by self-liberated (formerly enslaved) Africans, and their descendants still occupy them today.

My Own Private Rodeo, by Coyote Park

My Own Private Rodeo — an exhibition of new works by Coyote Park.  Navigating the world in a body that has been desecrated, reclaimed, brutalized, and empowered, Coyote Park asks. “What does it mean for myself to exist in a way that my elders weren’t allowed to?” These works move through feelings of grief, mourning, loss, pride, redemption, and play. A rodeo of aching glory: where they are the hunter, the hunted, the bull, and the rider.
