TCH x TA: A REZidency in DTLA
Opening on Indigenous Peoples’ Day, October 11, 2021 and closing November 11, 2021 in Native American Heritage Month, Transformative Arts hosted The Chapter House for a REZidency at their location on Tongvaland, or Downtown Los Angeles. This collaboration marks The Chapter House’s first in-person arts events, including musical performances, workshops and demos, and artist talks and panels. This residency celebrated the community of Indigenous Peoples, allies, and accomplices The Chapter House has cultivated through online programming over the past year in Transformative Arts’ physical space.
This is the first step for The Chapter House towards opening a permanent brick and mortar space in Tongvaland/Los Angeles.
