We're so proud of Alum Erlina Ortiz (TFM '12) on receiving a recent Leeway Transformation Award!
 

As part of the award, the Leeway Foundation announced $180,000 in unrestricted support to 12 artists and cultural producers working at the intersection of art and social change. This year’s cohort spans an array of artistic disciplines and social change intents including Erlina who is an award-winning playwright and multidisciplinary artist as well as co-artistic director of Power Street Theater.

 

We were fortunate enough to sit down with Erlina to talk with her about the award, her process and so much more.
