Event Recap

For the ninth issue of New Suns, we facilitated conversations with twelve artists from Mutual Mentorship for Musicians (M³) about how they encounter translation in their creative practices and daily lives. M³ is an artist-led platform that was co-founded by Jen Shyu, 2019 USA Fellow in Music, and Sara Serpa to empower musicians from historically underrepresented identities and backgrounds. They have cultivated a community of artists from around the world who are committed to supporting each other and shaping music for the better.

In the fall, we came together for a launch party at The Center for Fiction in New York. New Suns contributors Jessica Jones, Gwen Laster, Dafna Naphtali, and Naomi Geena Nakanishi read excerpts from M³’s Anthology of Writings.
