Miranda, Jr., a Puerto-Rican community activist, prominent New York political consultant, and long-time Washington Heights resident. In August of 2020, the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance (NoMAA) in partnership with HBO conducted a call for submissions from local artists to create works that reflect key moments in history of Latinx immigration to Washington Heights. The commission was first unveiled as a single double-sided wall on La Plaza de las Americas, United Palace for two weeks in October 2020. The Audubon Terrace installation presents the series in two sections, inviting an alternate viewing experience at an important Washington Heights landmark shared by the Hispanic Society Museum & Library and Boricua College. This exhibit brings together art, culture, and community in Washington Heights, transforming a section of Audubon Terrace and sharing the story with the surrounding area, all of New York City, and beyond.\nThis exhibition forms part of an exciting collaboration between the Hispanic Society Museum & Library, the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance (NoMAA), and Boricua College on two exciting exhibitions: Latinx Diaspora: Stories from Upper Manhattan, on Audubon Terrace; and, In the Heights: From University to Silver Screen, at the Hispanic Society’s newly inaugurated East Building Gallery as well as Boricua College’s library on the second floor. These exhibitions inaugurate the annual Arts Stroll/Paseo de las Artes organized by NoMAA.\nVisitor Information\nHispanic Society Museum & Library – Audubon TerraceBroadway between 155th and 156th StreetsMay 28 – August 14, 2021 (closed Sunday July 4th)\nOpen Daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM\nTo learn more about the exhibition, please click here. \nUpcoming Artist WorkshopsThis Summer, take some time to step away from your computer!
