We hope you will join the conversation and the exchange of thinking with / and for each other by joining us as fellow travelers.

We are inviting creative communities into collaborations, written/visual contributions, and participation in a new, free, two-hundred-page bilingual Spanish/English publication that can serve migrants as a companion on their journey in the form of a Yellow Pages guidebook containing entertaining yet practical information that illuminates both natural and human migration along the US/MX border.

About:
Featuring Mexico City-based artist Minerva Cuevas, created in collaboration with the University of Texas-El Paso Rubin Center, this multi-sited transnational project is conceived with the broad understanding that migration is a natural process that includes non-human species. An exhibition at the Rubin Center, together with a free companion publication and cultural interventions in Ciudad Juárez, will relate to actions of dissidence in the ecology of migration that respond to regional, social, and environmental crises.

This publication is made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Warhol Foundation, the University of New Mexico Center for Environmental Arts & Humanities, and the University of Texas-El Paso.
