 The purpose of the Not Festival : On horns, hair, hens, haze and other (Orgi)anic things project is  
  threefold.  First, it is a continuation of Luis Lara Malvacías’s interest in creating collaborative and  
  multidisciplinary events that invite cross-cultural exploration for both participants and audience.  Second, it is  
  a powerful stimulus to the participating artists that offers them the opportunity to share their ideas and to
  discuss topics that are relevant to contemporary art and dance today.  Finally, the event fosters the formation  
  of a network of artists who can create similar projects in the future in other parts of the world.

home about news
     Luis Lara Malvacías created
     3RD CLASS CITIZEN in 2003.
     Formed initially with a focus on
     dance, visual arts and New Media,
     this collective was comprised
     of artists from a wide range of
     the growing Latino populations
     living and working in New York.
     Its collective nature also
     encouraged the interaction of
     artists, musicians, designers
     and choreographers from
     different cultural backgrounds.
     The project is constantly
     evolving and changing. The
     Not Festival : On
    horns, hair, hens, haze
    and other (Orgi)anic things
     Is a result of this venture.
