Original-Creativa-Made in Mexico!!!
I am a professional theatre designer and Adriana Carbajal has been working with me through the Leadership Through The Arts at the Queens Museum and the I-Mentor program this year as an academic and artistic mentee. I have found her to be among the brightest, most thoughtful, most responsible and most creative young people I have ever met (and I have taught college classes all over the country). She has amazed me with her varied talents and her intellectual maturity and motivation. She is passionate, thoughtful and motivated as well as being a deeply generous human being. What really makes her stand out is the combination of her abilities as a student, as an artist and as a leader in several disciplines with her ability and desire to work for change in the lives of others despite the difficulties in her own.
In the two and a half years since she arrived from Mexico, Adriana has not only become a highly successful student academically, become a leader in all kinds of political and community groups, but she has been involved in writing, dancing, acting and film making. All this while learning English and adjusting to a new country.
Some of her specific artistic accomplishments: As a theatre artist Adriana has been a part of the Manhattan Class Company (MCC) Theater Youth Company, a group that performs plays written and acted in by under-served New York City youth, who included Adriana’s work as a writer and as an actor in an evening of theatre last year. Her talents both as a writer and as a performer amazed several of my colleagues in the theatre business. As a creative writer Adriana writes poetry that is beautiful, sophisticated and intellectually mature, despite being in her second language. Adriana is a member of the Leadership Through The Arts program at the Queens Museum, where she has, among other things, helped to organize and present an exhibit of work by Iraqi women new to this country. She is currently working with her peers on a documentary entitled Neglected Neighborhoods about life in Corona, Queens, her local community.
As a student Adriana has achieved incredible things. She is currently enrolled in classes at LaGuardia College while still in high school. She is working as an ESL and a math tutor for other students in her school making the transition from other countries to the United States, and serves as a translator for parent teacher conferences. She is also part of the National Honor Society through her school, and takes AP and college level classes consistently and successfully.
I cannot stress how impressed I am by the unique combination of talent, intelligence, motivation, generosity and passion that make up this lovely young woman. Not only does she have impressive gifts intellectually and artistically, but her art is always both for herself and for others, inspired and motivated as much by the desire to help others express themselves as by her own need to create and perform.
