Grants to this Grantee
for the 2018 50 Arts Commissions for theater, spoken word, and musical theater
In recognition of the Hewlett Foundation’s 50th anniversary, the Hewlett 50 Arts Commissions initiative supports the creation and premiere of 50 exceptional works of performing arts. This grant will support Teatro Visión’s “Raíces: el libro de los caminos” (“Roots: The Book of Journeys”). The production is a binational, multimedia theater piece created through a collaboration between Teatro Visión of San Jose, and lead artist Salomon Huerta’s company, La Quinta Teatro ensemble of Mexico City. The central theme of the play will be the experience of migration between Mexico and the United States. This supplemental grant will help Teatro Visión with production expenses that increased due to pandemic-related challenges.
