DE CAJóN Project is a community arts organization based in Seattle, WA dedicated to educating populations about the cultural contributions of Peruvians of African descent. As a movement we facilitate music and dance workshops; offer lectures and residencies; perform widely throughout the Pacific Northwest with our company; and build inter-cultural and inter-generational communities through art. We actively support similar efforts in Peru and collaborate with other individuals and groups that use art as an empowering tool for change.
The DE CAJON Company is very proud of having performed with Grammy Award winners Martha Gonzalez and Juan Medrano Cotito, with Afro-Peruvian legend Marina Lavalle and world renowned multifaceted artist Miguel Ballumbrosio
