ROCO Connections: Musical and Literary Ofrenda

Courtesy of Lawndale Art Center

ROCO celebrates the Mexican “Day of the Dead” with our annual Musical and Literary Ofrenda at Lawndale Art Center. This free five-way collaboration finds ROCO partnering with Lawndale, Musiqa, Inprint and the Houston Hispanic Forum — all promoted by The Mexican Consulate. The five original musical “ofrendas” (offerings) – commissioned by ROCO from Musiqa composers – are woven amongst four original prose texts by Inprint authors, surrounded by the beautiful retablos (alterpieces) on display at Lawndale.

Wine at 5:30 p.m., music and readings at 6 p.m., Espanol y Arte at 7 p.m.
