Hispanic Heritage Month
Join Us for Hispanic Heritage Month
We’re proud to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with three exciting opportunities listed below.
Join us on Thurs., Sept. 25, for an evening to raise funds for the work of Home Is Here NOLA, a local non-profit that supports immigrants and refugees in the Greater New Orleans area.
Brazilian Song - Sept. 28
Make it stand out
On Sept. 28 (3 PM), Mila Suzano will have a recital themed: “A Conversation with Faith through Brazilian Song,” which is tied to her doctoral work at Tulane University.
Mila will be accompanied by Victor Campbell (piano) and Geovane Santos (guitar).
All are welcome to this free performance.
Short Stories with Pablo Barra
Latin American Short Stories
Join us for a literary workshop at 6 PM on Wednesday evenings (Sept. 24, Oct. 1, and Oct. 8), exploring contemporary Latin American fiction. We will read short stories by Roberto Bolaño, Alejandro Zambra, and Liliana Colanzi that offer a window into a side of Latin America not often seen in the United States.
We will delve into an unlikely friendship between two writers in exile, a young woman's disturbing coming-of-age under her mother's watchful religious eye, and one man's memories of a brutal Chilean school. All are welcome to participate in this literary discussion.
