Fourth Annual Albuquerque Cultural Conference
Saturday - Sunday, August 27-28, 2011

This year’s theme, “Cultural Survival in Difficult Times,” extends the discussion of trauma we began at last year’s event to explore cultural survival via literacy and the arts, independent media, and social and environmental justice. We’ll focus on expression: how a resilient community with a strong culture is sustained by performance, the written word, public art, and social activism.
