Borderlands Theater strives to build equitable, joyful, and meaningful collaborations with the local community through innovative theater and responsive cultural programs ingrained in the heritage, narratives, and lived experiences of peoples rooted across the Sonoran Desert. They cut the middlemen and go right to the source so that we can hear the stories of the neglected underdog in our community. They have been invited to be part of a national project called: “One Nation One Project” that took place in 18 cities in the US to bring awareness about the vital connection between arts and wellness. This story gives us a glimpse of what it means to have a community mobilization to do good in our community via art making.
