This theatre-dance work follows Ayana, a young African American college student with roots in Latin and West African culture. Deeply connected to all three worlds yet fully claimed by none, she is overwhelmed by her competing identities. As she falls into a dreamlike state, she is guided by Griot — a keeper of ancestral memory, and three cultural Elders representing Latin, African American, and West African traditions.

Through dance, spoken word, drumming, and collective movement, this story explores identity as layered rather than fragmented. At its heart, Echoes of Heritage is about reclamation; how ancestry lives in the moment, how culture survives in the body, and how one young woman learns that she is not torn between worlds — she is the echo that carries them forward.

Created and directed by Kishema Pendu Malik and Jason Nious.

This immersive exhibition of photographic works by Keeva Lough invites the viewer to contemplate history, gender, and violence by focusing on toys, nick-knacks, and dolls. These innocuous objects - plastic “cowboys and Indians,” porcelain depictions of colonial scenes, little army men and police officers - are considered as conveyors of ideology that inform our assumptions about American society.

The photos are high contrast and filled with deeply saturated colors; some are rendered in red-and-cyan 3D, emphasizing their artificial spectacle. Individual photographs are framed in thrifted wooden frames painted gold. Others are printed as wallpaper covering the walls of the gallery, calling attention to the invisible backdrop of ideas making up our conceptions of the world.
