Tickets are $20 in support of our fundraising efforts—please RSVP early, as space is limited and this event may sell out. (21+ event; snacks and beverages provided.) Participants will explore printmaking techniques and materials to reflect, reclaim wounded parts of the self, and reconstruct wholeness. Through plática, storytelling, and collective reflection, we’ll strengthen our inner resilience and build meaningful community connections. Proceeds benefit the International Women’s Day 2026 Organizing Committee at Centro Cultural de la Raza and support the Serpiente Mural Renovation Project. Funds will help replace deteriorating exterior panels and commission a new serpiente mural—led by women-identified artists—preserving the Centro’s cultural legacy while uplifting new artistic voices.
