    From June through September the COAHSI Folklife program will be presenting “The Mobile Heritage Project: Living culture in your neighborhood” (MHP), a series of free interactive program (workshops, demonstrations, performances, and symposium) that will circulate traditional art forms— (folktales, drum, dance, food, poetry, oral history, language)— in highly visible, open air, and accessible public spaces in the center of our island’s daily life. From the mountains of Atlantic Salt, to the FDR boardwalk, the MHP will explore the process of movement and circulation that expressions from Liberia, Sri Lanka, Puerto Rico, Ireland, and Mexico confront as they grace our island’s everyday life. In public spaces of Staten Island, we will explore the flexibility and mobile routes of song, dance, and stories of these traditional communities. In addition, we will also uncover some of the barriers that these traditions face. The program will culminate with a symposium at the Port Richmond Library’s historic Chimes Theater and will explore how we can move these important cultural ecosystems safely into the 21st century, together.
