The MacArturos are coming to Cal State Monterey Bay.
Each year since 1981, the MacArthur Foundation has given no-strings-attached grants to individuals who show exceptional merit and promise of continued creative work. The recipients come from all fields. The awards have become known as "genius grants."
Amalia Mesa-BainsLatino awardees banded together as the MacArturos, with the goal of supporting each other's activist efforts and sharing their work with la comunidad, according to the website of writer Sandra Cisneros, who organized the first meeting in San Antonio in 1997. The group originally came together as a reunion, to inspire Latino youth. Over the years, meetings have been held in San Jose, Los Angeles, Toledo and Chicago.
Ten Latino MacArthur Fellows will visit CSUMB on Jan. 26. In a roundtable format at the World Theater, they will provide insight into their influences, inspirations and practices.
