Arts for Art at El Taller

For the 4th consecutive year, Arts for Art partners with El Taller Latino Americano to present a program of creative music in East Harlem. This series serves to amplify both organizations missions by assembling a diverse group of artists and audiences as part of a continued effort to bridge East Harlem and the Lower East Side. To fulfill this goal, the programming emphasizes African-American and Latinx artists working within the free tradition of improvised music.
