Our Work/Our Dignity: Socially Engaged Performance Practice for Community Organizing with Andreína aka Nina Maldonado

The work of interdisciplinary artist, cultural worker, and educator Andreína Maldonado (aka Nina Limón) is rooted in her experiences as a Venezuelan immigrant, performing artist, and domestic worker. For six years, she has worked with the Latinx community in the San Francisco Mission District to provide art spaces for healing and building relationships through dance, social activism, and performances. During this bilingual and interactive event, Maldonado will present a lecture and performance demonstrating her process of creating "Our Work/Our Dignity," a dance theater piece that featured 13 domestic workers and day laborers performing live music, poetry, and worker testimonies.
