Thank you so much to all of you who came to the Tradition Bearers, Live! event last week. It was wonderful to see the Madison Youth Arts lobby and theater filled with people enjoying the artists' demonstrations and conversations about the traditions they practice and share. When Alejandra Jiménez invited folks to try some Aztec dance, people poured from their seats to the stage. It was the perfect finale to a wonderful night.
Couldn't make the event? We've you covered! Many have asked if we recorded the event audio, and luckily, we did. You can listen to the onstage conversations between Alejandra, Vesile Yilmaz (Turkish water marbler - Ebru), Jennifer Jordan (Haudenosaunee beadwork) and folklorist Chrissy Widmayer. We will release them as episodes of Human Powered podcast in the coming month. Stay tuned and subscribe in your favorite podcast app!
Thank you again to everyone who came. And thank you all who support Wisconsin Humanities and the work we do to bring our communities together through the cultures, stories, and histories we carry within us and share with each other.
Yours,
Dena Wortzel
Executive Director, Wisconsin Humanities
