Details LUNA LOBA: Moons of Abundance part 1 "LUNA LOBA is a performance series that creates space to explore ritual through artistic practice. Performance art, video, spoken word/readings, sound/music, and performative installation. This series has been running for three consecutive years in Providence, RI, since 2016, with a hiatus in 2019. Each night features 12 artists across mediums and identities.

Excited to be a part of this new initiative!

"The City of Providence has awarded five artists to participate in a new pilot training in Artist Facilitation and Community Health Work followed by a three-month residency in a community based organization. Co-led by Providence’s  Department of Art, Culture + Tourism (ACT)  and  Healthy Communities Office , the  Creative Community Health Worker Fellowship  provides 70 hours of training under Dr. Dannie Ritchie, Director of  Community Health Innovations of Rhode Island  and three Artist-Facilitators,  Laura Brown-Lavoie ,  Vatic Kuumba  and  Valerie Tutson . This pilot program is designed to support artists to become  RI certified Community Health Workers , expanding the impact of the arts on addressing social determinants of health. This fellowship is an extension of the City’s  Sowing Place Initiative , generously funded by the  Kresge Foundation. " https://artculturetourism.com/creative-community-health-worker-fe...
