At El Comalito Collective Cultural Arts Center 
All-Ages // [facebook.com/elcomalitocollective] // 302 Georgia St, Vallejo

Friday, April 13th, 6 to 9pm
"Ser Muxer: Lo Que (No) Me Dijo Mami About Being A Xingonx" 
curated by Karen Tafoya-Delgado
Artist Talk @ 8pm
Event page [facebook.com/events/175346569763178]
“Ser muxer: lo que (no) me dijo mami about being a Xingonx” a show about the relationships among muxeres and how those relationships empower and or inspire muxeres to follow our own caminos despite social, gender and cultural norms. The artwork includes celebration, unresolved feelings and lingering conflict in regards to these relationships.
My hope is that bringing together this body of work, as well as this group of Xingonxs, will inspire and empower other muxeres; start conversations and potentially new relationships/connections.
Xingonx (Chingona): someone who is very smart, intelligent and can do things quickly; to aspire; a maker of their own camino, this is their path and they will follow it, regardless of what society and culture says. --- Karen Tafoya-Delgado
