Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

“Pfp provides folklife and arts programs to diverse communities in philadelphia. In fy23, we continued the development of making a homeplace: the historically black neighborhood of swarthmore, which documents and celebrates the history of swarthmore's threatened historically black neighborhood. Through the collection of oral histories and multiple community-based events, the project activates neighborhood and cultural memory. We continued to support the work of gamelan gita santi and modero and company, a partnership between a multigenerational gamelan (traditional indonesian music) ensemble and an indonesian dance company. In partnership with artist ivonne pinto-garcia, we co-sponsored a series of da de los muertos-related workshops and celebrations. Finally, in partnership with documentarian nadia hironaka, we supported community-based workshops leading to the creation of an animated film about the experiences of latin american immigrants in philadelphia.”
