Castle of Our Skins, a Boston-based Black arts institution, is celebrating its 10th year of shining a light on Black composers. The group recently released a debut album of classical music written by five Black composers from Africa and the African diaspora.

In an exciting collaboration of artistic forces, Castle of our Skins, The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University and visual artist Daniel Callahan of Create & Record are presenting the MassQ Ball 2022: Origin. This large-scale cultural event, taking place July 9, will celebrate the cross-cultural artistic expressions and roots of Boston’s communities of color.
