Organized By: Department of American Culture

A “uniquely Angeleno mishmash of punk, hip-hop, beat music, cumbia, and rock…live, they’re magnetic” (Los Angeles Times). Las Cafeteras create a vibrant musical fusion with a unique East LA sound and positive message, a mix-and-match of styles and sources that deliver socially conscious lyrics in both English and Spanish. Their wildly vibrant Afro-Mexican beats, rhythms, and rhymes document stories of a community looking for love and fighting for justice in the concrete jungle of Los Angeles.

Mapplethorpe in Performance: Featuring Bryce Dessner and Korde Arrington Tuttle (March 14, 2019 5:10pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/58877 58877-14569985@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, March 14, 2019 5:10pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design

This talk brings together the creative team behind Triptych (Eyes of One on Another), a University Musical Society (UMS) co-commission exploring the work of Robert Mapplethorpe. The production will enjoy its world premiere on Friday, March 15, and Saturday, March 16 at the Power Center Composer Bryce Dessner and librettist Korde Arrington Tuttle will discuss the range of artistic influences that informed Mapplethorpe’s work — and how the production translates the visual medium into an interdisciplinary experience. Thirty years after the death of Mapplethorpe, we still cannot turn away from what his photos reveal. Mapplethorpe’s work both unites and divides viewers, provoking a consideration of perceived opposites: black/white, male/female, gay/straight, art/porn, classical/contemporary. His pictures seduce, shock, offend, excite, intrigue, and scare us all at once. Triptych seeks to make theatrical the ways Mapplethorpe’s works compel an audience’s complicity and characterize them in the act of attention.

Co-presented with the University Musical Society (UMS).

Omar Offendum Residency. Work in Progress Showing: Little Syria (March 30, 2019 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/62632 62632-15414528@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Saturday, March 30, 2019 8:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Global Islamic Studies Center

Omar Offendum’s residency culminates with a work-in-progress performance. Set amidst the backdrop of the fabled Little Syria neighborhood in NYC (1880-1940), this unique performance project bridges hip-hop & live Arabic instrumentation with the time-honored “Hakawati” storytelling traditions of the Levant. Offendum (Syria via LA) is joined by oud virtuoso Ronnie Malley (Palestine via Chicago) and DJ/beatmaker Thanks Joey (Syria via Brooklyn), to uncover what life in the heart of Arab-America was like over a century ago, while informing much of what is happening today in terms of immigration, xenophobia, Syria, and the ever-evolving notion of an “American dream.”

This event is free but registration is required, please register on the UMS website here: https://ums.org/performance/omar-offendum-residency-work-in-progress-little-syria/

From the First Baptist Website: "we joyfully welcome and affirm individuals of any age, race, ethnicity, nationality, physical and mental ability, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, marital status, level of education, economic circumstance, and religious background to participate fully in all aspects of the life and ministry of our church."
