Join us at Paine Hall for this 90-minute intimate musical performance in which Samora Pinderhughes and friends will introduce The Healing Project to Harvard and local communities.

Pianist-composer Samora Pinderhughes leads world-class musicians, composers, poets, and others in a new multidisciplinary work that explores the daily realities of structural violence, incarceration, policing, and detention in US communities.   

The Healing Project creates artistic works, collective healing spaces, and advocacy initiatives in partnership with individuals impacted by structural violence to build a world based on healing rather than punishment. Samora Pinderhughes is a Harvard graduate student pursuing a PhD in Creative Practice and Critical Inquiry (CPCI) at the Harvard Department of Music. 

This performance is part of a commission of the Harvard University Committee on the Arts (HUCA) and was made possible with the support of the Johnson-Kulukundis Family President’s Fund for Arts at Harvard University. The Healing Project is part of Samora Pinderhughes’ residency at ArtLab.

Paine Hall is wheelchair accessible by ramp and elevator to the second floor. An accessible bathroom is also available. Special seating to accommodate wheelchairs requires advance notice.
