Today we took a class trip to the University of Puerto Rico in Rio Piedras, which is a public university. Our first class was presented by poet, writer and cultural activist, Yolanda Arroyo Pizzaro, on engaging the gender narrative within a traditional and colonial framework. Then, artist and student organizer Pedro Lugo presented on student activism, student strikes and took us on a tour of the campus to see student activist murals.

Hi, my name is Lorie; I am a NYC-based artist and cultural advocate. I first created this blog in 2015 as a means of documenting my experience as a student of a community arts program in Puerto Rico with CCCADI. The blog has lived on, documenting my experiences in NYC and beyond, participating in artful events, and maintaining threads of community arts, social justice, EDI and the Puerto Rican diaspora. Thank you for your interest in my Travesía Artística! I hope to hear from you.
