Chocolate History, Julia Lambright, National Dance Institute
Artifacts used to make chocolate tell a delicious history of the Americas and New Mexico.
“Chocolate or Theobroma Cacao, which means food of the Gods, is a drink that shares thousands of years of history.”
JULIA LAMBRIGHT
After an extraordinary childhood in Russia, Albuquerque painter Julia Lambright finds connection with her past.
“And I think art is really a way and aesthetics is a way… that I can look at the whole and admit I don’t understand.”
NATIONAL DANCE INSTITUTE
National Dance Institute’s Evelyn Cisneros-Legate, once the prima ballerina for the San Francisco Ballet, is passionate about making ballet accessible to young people.
