Delve into the living culture of the Taíno Peoples—including traditional regalia, language, and dance— with members of the Higuayagua Taíno community of the Caribbean. Explore the rich history of the Taíno, which has been present since time immemorial and continues to resonate in the Caribbean and beyond. This interactive session is presented in collaboration with the Community Healing Center and is open to both English and Spanish speakers. 

This event has been organized to accompany the ICA Watershed exhibition—Hew Locke: The Procession. Poetic and powerful, the installation draws on the metaphor of the voyage to, in the artist’s words, “reflect on the cycles of history, and the ebb and flow of cultures, people, finance, and power.”

Learn about Caporales, a traditional high-energy Andean dance. This interactive workshop at the Watershed will be led by the Veronica Robles Cultural Center (VROCC), an East Boston arts organization that seeks to foster, share, and celebrate Latino cultures. Performers from East Boston and Caporales San Simon New England will join Robles to share the history, cultural influences, and traditions of Caporales followed by a demonstration of this folkloric dance. As described by the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, Caporales, “acknowledges the African slave experience of Bolivia, and honors Afro-Bolivian identity and cultural expressions.”
