Early Era Collective's "Rising from the Roots" celebrates U.S. immigrants through filmed interviews and live dance. Happening September 13-15, 2024 at the George Washington Carver Museum, this exhibit-style live production will feature interviewees and artists who have immigrated from Lebanon, Palestine, Bangladesh, Belgium, the Philippines, and more. Co-Produced by Chakra Media Company, interviews feature activists, educators, spiritual leaders, and artists working for change in their communities. Live performances from Austin Dance India, A'lante Flamenco, Oro Dance Company, and Alexa Capareda + Lisa del Rosario will highlight Austin's diverse dance community. Across 10 showings, small audiences of up to 25 viewers will be guided through the Museum as our production unfolds.

 

This production is sponsored, in part, by the City of Austin Economic Development Department and the Artist Access Program.
