Beneath the Tree is a community gathering celebrating art, literature, music, and cultural exchange, presented as part of the BORIMIX Fest. The event brings together artists and audiences to share creative work, connect across disciplines, and build community through an intimate and welcoming experience.

This edition features filmmaker Marta Bautis; poets Jorge Luis Berrios and Tanya Ko Hong; writer and poet Linda Morales Caballero; writer Rolando Perez; and a music performance by FireArms are Always the Answer (FAAA). The gathering creates space for diverse artistic voices through film, poetry, literary readings, and live music.

Conceived as a recurring community gathering, Beneath the Tree encourages artists to present excerpts or samples of their work rather than full-length performances. Its purpose is to foster dialogue, discover new creative voices, and strengthen connections among artists and the Lower East Side community.

The event is presented by Juan Valenzuela and Gloria Zelaya and initiated by Jacob Garcés Marquez. Hosted at Teatro Kabayitos at The Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural and Educational Center, Beneath the Tree welcomes the public to an evening of artistic expression, collaboration, and community.
