This November, join the School of Filmmaking for a multimedia presentation with Dr. Mathew Sandoval spotlighting the annual Day of the Dead festival in Phoenix, Arizona as part of the “Symposium” guest artist series. Sandoval’s work explores how Latino, Native American and African American artists exchange culture and foster solidarity by publicly performing their ancestral traditions as part of the holiday for honoring one’s ancestors and dearly departed. The lecture is accompanied by a screening of Dr. Sandoval’s short documentary, “Day of the Dead in the Valley of the Sun.” A Public Scholar with the National Endowment for the Humanities, Dr. Sandoval teaches at Arizona State University. His work on Mexican-American and Mexican art and culture has been featured on NBC’s “Today Show,” PBS, NPR, in the Washington Post and more.
