Art, Creativity & Immigrant Youth
Gesa Power House Theatre proudly presents Art, Creativity & Immigrant Youth, featuring speaker Lakeya Afolalu. Humanities Washington sponsors this event, presented in partnership with the Walla Walla Immigrant Rights Coalition.
Young people across the U.S.—and especially in Washington—are growing up between languages, countries, and cultures. In this talk, explore how immigrant and transnational youth, particularly girls of color, use the arts to express their identities while navigating transnational lives and multilingualism.
Drawing from personal experience, community-based work in South Seattle, and youth stories, Afolalu highlights how creative expression becomes a vital space for self-expression, community, and voice.
Lakeya Afolalu lives in Seattle and is an assistant professor of language, literacy, and culture at the University of Washington. A Nigerian and African American scholar and leader, her work explores immigrant and transnational youth identities through literacy, language, and the arts. She has a PhD from the University of Texas at Austin. Free tickets available from Power House Theatre.
