After a successful screening run of the short film version of the project in over 15 cities across the U.S. in 2021, When We Gather will be performed live for the first time at the National Gallery of Art on April 30th, 2022, as part of the programming around the groundbreaking Afro-Atlantic Histories exhibition.
The performance will be led by María Magdalena Campos-Pons, featuring Dell Marie Hamilton and Jana Harper, two of the original artists in the film, as well as new collaborating artists, Sue-Ann Letta Forde, Stephanie Mercedes, Helina Metaferia, and Jessica Sandhu.
The performance was made possible by major support from the Phyllis & Jerome Lyle Rappaport Foundation and a grant from the Alice L. Walton Foundation. Additional generous support was provided by the Carl M. Freeman Foundation, Craig and Kathryn Hall, and Leah R. Bennett.
