SUMMARY:Fabiola Mendez at Windmills Brewery
DESCRIPTION:Fabiola Méndez is a Puerto Rican cuatrista\, singer\, educator\, and Emmy-nominated composer. Her artistic vision and original music focus on the exploration of her culture\, her ancestry\, and her identities. Native to Caguas\, PR\, Fabiola began playing the cuatro\, Puerto Rico’s national instrument\, at the age of six. She got her early music trainings at the Antonio Paoli School of Music in Caguas and her Bachelor’s in Music from Berklee College of Music\, where in 2018 she made history as the first graduate to play the Puerto Rican cuatro as principal instrument.

In 2022\, she produced her first documentary “Negrura”\, showcasing Afro-Latinx stories in topics around colorism and discrimination within our own communities.\nIn recent years\, she’s had the honor of receiving recognitions such as the Quincy Jones Award\, ambassador for the Puerto Rican Day Parade in NYC\, the Brother Thomas Fellowship\, the Whippoorwill Arts Fellowship\, and the ASCAP Foundation Lucille and Jack Yellen Award 2022.
