Carne Viva's mission is to honor our collective experiences and cultures as we gather to liberate our bodies as joy becomes an act of rebellion. Focused on representing the true essence of its members through multidisciplinary practices that are fueled by the frustrations of the world around us, whose goal has been to colonize our bodies, land, and ways of embracing our ancestral genetic memories. There is urgency for us to disrupt and dismantle these spaces. Allowing pleasure and radical joy to inhabit la comunidad y nuestra cultura, and make work that feels raw and shakes us to its core, beginning with us as creatives. We are deep believers that practice forms the community, and community forms the practice. Being an extension of our community, our work is a direct threshold of those whose shoulders we stand on, who we are, and those of whose future we are helping to shape.

What is "LA CALLE"?

LA CALLE! is Carne Viva’s initiative to shift the way arts and education are embedded into our communities' everyday lives. Understanding that our practice forms the community, and the community forms the practice, our collective work in these mediums catapults us into intentional and experiential work with culture at its center. Committed to a constant evolution in the arts, we aim to disrupt the idea that movement is only capable if you are trained. Here we welcome all bodies, all levels, to be intertwined in the magic of artivism. We prove that art is a tool agent for change, allowing folks to become part of our familia through movement, music, and text to inspire and uplift our audiences.
