 uiet Evening with a Potato)\n\nMuseum Lobby\n\nFeaturing experimental soun
 ds from the Peruvian Andes\, this 15-minute performance is complemented by
  video projections celebrating the ancestral significance of the potato\, 
 which was originally domesticated by the Indigenous peoples of the Andes a
 pproximately 7\,000 to 10\,000 years ago. The performance’s title draws 
 inspiration from the American botanist and geneticist Edgar Anderson’s e
 ssay “How to Spend a Nice Quiet Evening with a Potato\,” which was pub
 lished in the Bulletin of the Missouri Botanical Garden in 1955. \n\n2:45

 l: Mangle  \n\nBarney A. Ebsworth Gallery  \n\nDance artists Lourdes del M
 ar Santiago Lebrón (MFA 2025) and Tess Angelica Losada-Tindall (MFA 2025)
  present an embodied exploration of the intersections between the environm
 ental fragility of the Caribbean mangle (mangrove) and the diasporic grief
  that stems from forced migration. The mangle mirrors diasporic migrat
 ion through the displacement of its seedlings\, which drop from its branch
 es—in a process akin to live birth—only to be swept away by the curren
 ts of the waters in which it grows.  \n\n3:15–3:30 pm | Juan William Ch
