This year, we are pleased to announce that HCX will be returning to Haiti to strengthen relationships and forge new exchanges with Haiti-based culture creators as we build our Selebrasyon! festival calendar.
As part of this trip we will host a special
An n' Pale with actor Gessica G�n�us on February 27th at FOKAL. More info...
These connections will help HCX better present a multidimensional view of Haiti's current cultural movements and up-and-coming artists. We hope to contribute to the creative and financial sustainability of artist communities in the U.S. and abroad.
