Each year, the city provides grants to local organizations to recognize Immigrant Heritage Month through events and celebrations that honor the immigrants who have shaped the city for generations. The grants support events that facilitate the successful engagement of immigrants into the civic, economic and cultural life of the Boulder community.

Join Motus Theater for a special performance recognizing the 10-year anniversary of the establishment of DACA through poignant and powerful personal stories of DACA leaders, music, and visual art.

“UndocuAmerica Monologues: 10 Years of DACA in Story and Song” will be presented on stage in Boulder in both English & Spanish with musical responses by Carlos Heredia and visual art by Edica Pacha. Monologists include Victor Galvan, Kiara Chavez, Armando Peniche, Laura Peniche and Irving Reza.

DACA was created to provide a two-year period of deferred deportation, a work permit and increased opportunity for higher education to children brought to this country without documentation. Motus has been developing artfully crafted monologues with DACA recipients to uplift the personal experience of people impacted by U.S. immigration policy since DACA’s inception in 2012. These performances aim to encourage thoughtful reflection on DACA and the families who are caught in the crosshairs of U.S. immigration policy.

These event are free and open to the public. Registration is encouraged.
