Testimonials

“The African roots in the Son Jarocho music [from Veracruz, Mexico] has been highlighted thanks to the collaboration we had with the DE CAJóN Project… This has enriched our vision and has awaken our responsibility towards that cultural legacy”Member of the Seattle Fandango Project
Fun and especially positive for my mixed-race family. I brought my boys to see [DE INGA Y MANDINGA] and they were enthralled, which is pretty great, considering they’re both under the age of ten! I especially loved seeing the younger performers on stage.Audience member, December 2012
“Monica Rojas and DE CAJóN Project’s artistic work is one of the main experiences of Afro-Peruvians internationally… it elevates us as humans…it is a commendable work, a huge effort, and it is a valuable example for future generations.”Director, Cultural Heritage Division, Museo Afroperuano Zaña-Peru
DE CAJóN Project has been a life-saving and life-changing experience for my children. It has given them a connection to their roots and culture despite the fact that we are so far from Peru… they’ve found their place in what it means to be Peruvian; and more than anything… it has provided my kids with security and confidence in themselves as well as pride and a love for Peru.”Mother of three second-generation Peruvian children
