WORK /03 / CULTURAL CURATION & PROGRAMMING

Free, and by design.

As a Gluck Fellow (2021–present), Cinthia curates and facilitates free, family-friendly public programming that connects museums and performing-arts centers with Latinx diaspora communities in the Inland Empire — using social dance as a vehicle for access, encounter, and belonging. Recent programming includes Tardes de Baile at The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art & Culture, and Rueda de Casino workshops and social dance events at UCR Arts (the Barbara and Art Culver Center of the Arts), in collaboration with the Riverside Salsa Collective and the Latinx RioJunto art collective.
