Additional information

Latino/a/x teens in the Hear Me Out/Escúchame project exhibit a group artwork that challenges stereotypes. What is important to know about Salvadoran or Honduran culture? What is overlooked in Mexican, Colombian, or Guatemalan culture? Drop in to see their response, and create “light-up” postcards or an art piece about your identity with simple art materials. Sketch and try other hands-on activities. Take your place with us and share how you want to be represented. 

Limited metered parking available on Oxford Street or purchase a $5 parking permit for the 52 Oxford Street Garage. Permits must be purchased in advance.

Presented by the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology and the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture.

Que se subestima en la cultura Mexicana, Colombiana, o Guatemalteca? Visítanos para ver sus respuestas y crea una pieza de arte sobre tu identidad con materiales básicos de arte. También puedes crear una tarjeta postal “iluminante”, un bosquejo y otras manualidades. Toma tu lugar con nosotros y comparte como quieres ser representado.
