Session 1: In our first gathering of the Arte y Tierra series, we’ll honor the beloved Monstera—la planta de abuelitas y tías—a plant that, like our familias, grows strong through both beauty and imperfection.
🌱 Hands-on: Learn to cut and propagate Monsteras, sharing plantitas the way our comunidades share stories, consejos, and traditions.
💬 Plantita Plática: Together we’ll reflect on how the natural “holes” and splits of the Monstera mirror the imperfections in our own lives, and how these marks can be embraced as part of our growth and wellbeing.
🎨 Art Creation: Guided by Tina Medina, participants will paint layered watercolor leaves inspired by the Monstera. We’ll highlight imperfections with touches of gold leaf—an artistic nod to healing and resilience, echoing traditions like kintsugi and cultural practices that honor what is broken yet made whole.
Come connect through art, plantas, and cultura as we root ourselves in community.
