Columbia College Women (CCW) presents an evening with photojournalist Wanda Benvenutti JRN'95 at her exhibition “American Boricua” with Columbia Professor Frances Negrón-Muntaner at La Sala de Pepe y Foto Espacio in Alphabet City. Cat Sposato CC'21, a journalist and CCW board member, will moderate.

Wanda will share an overview of her show, part of a decades-long project documenting Puerto Rican life in all 50 U.S. states. She will then join Frances for a conversation on both their work relating to Puerto Rico, the arts coupled with activism, and the reality of colonialism.

If you wish to join for pay-your-own-way dinner at Casa Adela afterwards, please RSVP here.
