About We Create:

Founded in 2014 by Mar Parrilla, We Create! was conceived out of a strong need to feature BIPOC artists in the city of Boston- particularly self-identified women and LGBTQ+ BIPOC artists. Its unique fellowship approach provides support for selected artists and alumni, such as grant-writing workshops, peer and mentor supported feedback sessions, and a fully produced concert at the completion of the fellowship.  We Create! is also a multidisciplinary arts festival. Throughout the years we have featured hundreds of artists within the fields of: dance, music, puppetry, film, circus arts, installations, visual arts, and mixed media arts. We are thrilled that We Create! has continued to grow strong, and that it remains a favorite among the Boston arts community. We are so excited to be entering our 11th year!

About Ezekiel:

Ezekiel  is a call back to where my relationship with the earth began; within the branches and leaves of my childhood tree, with whom I spent far too many hours climbing in, singing to the birds, and finding shade on the blistering South Texas days. Ezekiel is an external build of hope, release, love, and celebration as I look towards the future. As I accept the gifts bestowed upon me from my ancestors and the earth, and in turn share those gifts with my community. The gift of dance, the gift of my feet bounding across the earth, the gift of spreading my joy upon others; there is never scarcity where reciprocity exists.
