More than a concert
ARTPOINT is a cultural meeting place created by C&BPRODUCTIONS—a series of concerts, workshops, and masterclasses where celebrated artists share their music, their stories, and the ideas behind their craft.
Each edition brings audiences close to the creative process, building meaningful connections across cultures, generations, and neighborhoods.

Featured artist
Daymé Arocena is a Grammy-nominated and Juno Award-winning Afro-Cuban singer, composer, and choir director. Relying on instinct and intuition is how Arocena has managed her career since she burst onto the international scene with Nueva Era, her prodigious debut album, in 2015. In 2021, she became the youngest Latin American musician to complete Berklee College of Music's “Signature Artist” program, joining the ranks of legends who have influenced aspiring musicians at the prestigious institution.
Now, she has reinvented her sound with her latest album Alkemi, released on February 23, 2024, blending neo-soul singing, Afro-Caribbean beats, and modern pop. Collaborating with renowned producer Eduardo Cabra, Vicente García as special guest on “A Fuego Lento,” and Rafa Pabön on “Suave y Pegao,” the album incorporates diverse influences from jazz to urban stylings, challenging conventional notions of Latin pop.
The Afro-Cuban vocalist and composer brings her radiant presence, fearless expression, and unmistakable sound to the ARTPOINT Concert Series for a special benefit performance.
