Take advantage of the library’s Museum Discount Pass program to visit the Institute of Contemporary Art this February and view the exhibit Forecast Form: Art in the Caribbean Diaspora, 1990s–Today.
From icaboston.org:
“The exhibition is anchored in the concept of diaspora, the dispersal of people through migration both forced and voluntary. Here, diaspora is not a longing to return home but a way of understanding that we are always in movement and that our identities are in constant states of transformation… Forecast Form reveals new ways of understanding the Caribbean as a place defined not by geography, language, or ethnicity, but by constant exchange, displacement, and movement.”
The library’s ICA Museum Discount Pass will also provide discounted admission to any of the ICA’s three Let’s Dance: Popular Caribbean Dances events, “fun introductory sessions led by internationally renowned dance and music company, Masacote Entertainment. Each drop-in session will be led by an experienced dance coach and focus on a different genre, including merengue, rumba, bachata, and salsa. All experience and ability levels welcomed!”
