KULARTS is excited to announce our youth and families event which will be held at Yerba Buena Children’s Garden on Sunday, July 24th. Parallel to the themes presented in Benedicto’s novel Musalaya’s Gift, this event through its performers and workshops offer support amongst colonial and systemic oppression through a strengthened understanding, practice, and sharing of one’s ancestral culture and traditions. Feel free to bring snacks and drinks to enjoy. This event is for all ages and not to be missed!
