Please post and share widely!

CULTURA Ithaca announces the Buen Vivir lunch seminar series starting Wednesday Feb. 26 at 12:15pm.  Buen Vivir directly translates to "good living,” a Latin American alternative concept of development that focuses on the attainment of sustainable living within the individual, community and environment.  Ithaca, as a thriving community and cultural hub, provides a great backdrop for the spreading of new concepts and ideas.  Therefore, CULTURA is excited to bring you Buen Vivir, a four-part series intended to share sustainable living practices with the community through a Latino lens.

Once a month, starting Wednesday Feb. 26th, an inspirational Latino community member will share his/her Buen Vivir knowledge and experience through art, healing, music and more! This event is free and open to the public.  Light lunch will be provided by Tellez’s Mexican Grill & Catering.

Dates: Wednesdays Feb. 26, March 12, April 9, and May 14th.
Time: 12:15 - 1:30pm
Location: Center Ithaca Atrium behind Sangam’s

The first presentation of this series features Mexican artist and scholar ARMANDO SANTA ANA. Armando Santa Ana is a Mexican painter, solar sculptor, writer, and professor of Mexican Art History and Latin American Literature in different universities in Mexico and the USA.  Armando will be speaking about different traditional healing techniques including herbs, song, and art.

The CULTURA Buen Vivir Series is co-sponsored by The Latino Civic Association of Tompkins County, The Cornell Latino Studies Program and Latin American Studies Program, the Cornell Public Service Center, and Tellez’s Mexican Grill & Catering.

Space is limited so pre-registration is encouraged. Email culturaithaca AT gmail.com to pre-register.
