Actually since Im posting my headcanons: Pyrrhian tribe’s music
I think every tribe has different music instruments they use to make music,this is based on Qibli’s comment when listening to Nightwing music and saying it was weird that it didnt have any drums. OK SO
Sandwings: Percussions like bongos, drums etc AND their poison barbs, I hc that they can make sounds with them like rattlesnakes so they could also use them as maraccas. Generally just music to dance to, its a huge part of sandwing culture, they gather around bonfires to sing and dance.
Rainwings: Singing! they can sing like birds and you’ll pry this “rainwings make bird noises” headcanon out of my cold dead hands. Also extremely important in rainwing culture, half of what they do throughout the day is singing happily
Nightwings: Stringed instruments, mostly classical music filled with violins and other complicated to use instruments that other tribes have trouble understanding. They used to see music as the finest art so it still holds a lot of value in nightwing culture but the nightwings that grew up in the volcano dont focus on it to much.
Mudwings: IM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THIS ONE DAMM YOU TUI.T SUTHERLAND FOR NOT EXPLORING MUDWINGS MORE. They’d probably have those wind instruments made out of clay like Ocarinas but HUGE since yknow...dragons. I feel like it wouldnt be a huge part of the culture but still really appreciated
Icewings: Opera like things, the acustics in the ice kingdom are probably great. Also Xilophones made out of ice and things like that, like you hit the ice a little bit and it does a funky little sound. Icewings would not be ones for music though, it’d be really underappreciated.
Seawings: Seawings that live on shallower waters and are often on land most likely use shells as horns and other similar instruments. Deep sea seawings are less music appreciative due to them being underwater BUT while they are underwater they can do the same as WHALES and they sing that way. 
I think that the cultural exchange that could be had is also extremely interesting, specially with the rainwings integrating nightwing instruments into their songs and Mudwings that were in the war influencing the mudwing music scene with bongos and other percussion borrowed from sandwings. Also Rainwing bird singing and Seawing whale singing duet would be great

'Time to pop some piñatas!' 🍬🎉 Lourdes dreamed of being a ballerina when she was little. Being the only girl in her family though, she soon learned she had to be tough if she wanted to be heard. One night she snuck out of bed to watch the wrestling match her brothers were shouting at on tv. They looked amazing, those luchadors, with their sparkly suits and wrestling shoes! They got to talk, to tell their stories. They exploded with colour, not just frilly pastel skirts that got dirty when your brothers tripped you over. Lourdes threw her pointe shoes in the trash- she had found a better dream! She made luchadora costumes for her Barbies, and recorded theme songs with her maraccas. She trained and posed and practiced her moves in the mirror every day. The next time her brothers tried to pick on her, she was ready. It was the first time they had really noticed their little sister, and respected her as someone who was both strong and a girl. Lourdes' brothers started training with her, but pretty soon, it was she training them! She knew how to tuck herself up small, how to duck, and one day with an old broom-handle, how to swing and trip her opponents! Here she is with her trusty pupper Choco, who distracts her competition by shaking his maraccas, while Lourdes ducks, dodges and weaves around them. She might be a girl, and she might be cute, but she's no paper donkey. When you hear Choco's rattle, you know it's time for Lourdes to pop some piñatas! 💖💪🎉 #luchadora #luchador #fightlikeagirl #strongwomen #strongandbeautiful #womenofwrestling #art #illustration #dog #pitbull #digitalart #digitalpainting #originalcharacter #oc #artoninstagram #artistoninstagram #melmacklin

Havana Biennial: Everything You Need to Know about Cuba’s Most-Anticipated Art Festival
The Havana Biennial is back! For the first time since 2015, the world renown, month-long art exhibition will be held this April in Cuba. If the countdown clock on biennialhavana.org is any indication, the world is eagerly awaiting its return.
Tumblr media
Considering this event is nearly four years in the making and will help celebrate the 500th anniversary of the city of Havana, there is truly no better time to explore Cuba. Here’s everything you need to know about the highly-anticipated biennial festival, including a local’s perspective (quotations throughout) from Dayron Gonzalez, Discover Corps’ Cuban partner and Havana resident for 40 years:
The Festival is Held April 12-May 12
Mark your cellphone calendars for April 12th, the first day of the festival. Excitement is already building now for the spring when people from all over the world will converge on the island of Cuba – but this year’s event is different. The impact of Hurricane Irma in September of 2017 resulted in the cancellation of the 2018 exhibition, so artists and travelers alike are eager to renew the tradition. Busy during the month of April? Not to worry. The biennial continues until May 12th, so thousands of visitors have the opportunity to enjoy world-class art.
“I wish it was the biennial all year. The vibe, everything changes. The city turns into art. It’s incredible how many people go to see the artwork.”
Biennial History
The first Bienal de La Habana, as it is known in Spanish, was held in 1984 provided a needed outlet for a vibrant art scene in Cuba. Various other festivals were mainstays in the country, but the missing piece was a celebration of art. For the inaugural event, the response was astonishing, as roughly 800 artists agreed to participate. Initially, the event was created solely for Latin American and Caribbean artists, but today welcomes artist from more than 40 countries. Interestingly, the exhibition is technically not a biennial. The government of Cuba selects the event dates, which means 3 or more years can pass between “biennials,” only amplifying the anticipation of event goers.

The Art is Unlike Anywhere Else
A refreshing aspect of the art displayed during the biennial comes from the source of this creativity. While the thought-provoking artwork comes from all over the planet, many non-traditional artists are spotlighted. The event intentionally brings local and community-focused artwork to the forefront. Regions with lesser-known artists are regular participants, as the Middle East and Africa have a strong presence in Havana, which is rare at other international art exhibits. Additionally, event organizers display art in a way that can be appreciated by all, instead of confined by the walls of a gallery. This warm and welcoming approach permeates throughout the exhibition.
“Artists there show some of their best work. A lot of people go to buy the art. It’s not just a display. It is a great way for the artist to make themselves known.”

This Year’s Theme: The Construction of the Possible
This 13th edition of the Havana Biennial has the theme “The Construction of the Possible”, which some consider a nod to the challenges overcome in making this latest iteration a reality. Public demand is also pushing the exhibition beyond its normal boundaries. For the first time ever, the biennial will extend past the city limits into other provinces. A few of this year’s highlights will include:
Mar Adentro, an above water artistic space on an old dock in Cieñfuegos, which requires the work of a team of visual artists and architects to assemble
Cuban American Artist Magdalena Campos will design Ríos intermitentes (Intermittent Rivers) in the province of Matanzas
The International Video Art Festival, an annual event, will join the biennial with a video-focused exhibition in Camagüey
Artist Wilfredo Prieto will collaborate with artists from Central and South America, and Europe, in a former shipyard for a project known as Taller Chullima
Not to be forgotten, the Malecón, Havana’s iconic boardwalk, will again be a hub of activity with a favorite from years past, the Detrás del muro (Behind the Wall). The elaborate exhibition is expected to feature more than 70 artists and stretch on for almost four miles along Havana’s beautiful seaside
“Cuban’s love the event. Everybody loves it. Go and walk around the Malecón. Explore the small places in the city. The people are very easy going.”
Tumblr media
Picturesque at sunset, the Malecón is a hotspot any time of day
The Message
The official event announcement (translated from Spanish) offers more insight into the motivation behind the biennial. The full text can be read here, but below is an excerpt:
“The 13th Havana Biennial 2019, to be held from April 12 to May 12, proposes to encourage the interaction between creators, curators, experts and institutions, in a variety of way that contribute to sustainable variants, without departing from the propositive nature that all work or artistic project represents. We aspire that art point out new paths of collective reasoning and that their achievements offer, from the confrontation of different creative models of circulation, a greater rapprochement between the levels of viewers, locations and experience. Along with the idea of responding to the present, these practices outline possible notions of the future that, at least in the poetic or symbolic level, correspond with some needs of social transformation.”
“A great many of them [the artists] are on hand most of the time and they enjoy a certain level of political discourse. Not in an offensive way, but in a direct way. They talk about things like freedom of speech.”
Not Only for Artists – All are Welcome
It goes without saying the biennial is a valuable showcase for aspiring and established artists alike, but it’s important to know the festival is open to all. The art reflects this inclusive belief. Bold and inspiring pieces appeal to a wide range of audiences – often in very different, personal ways. One need not be an art aficionado to appreciate the artistic creativity on hand. A children’s art center in Pinar del Rio, demonstrates the biennial’s intention to appeal to families as well. Regardless of your affinity for art, the energy and life pulsing from every corner of Havana is worth the journey.   
How to Experience the Havana Biennial
Discover Corps recognizes the importance and uniqueness of the Havana Biennial and wants travelers to experience the event for themselves. To learn more about visiting Cuba, review the five itineraries below – each vacation offers trips to Havana during the dates of the exhibition, with an expert guide there to walk you through this iconic event:
