Capitol Hill Art Walk: Destino – February 11th

 

DESTINO

Creative Blueprint, 1617 Boylston Ave on Capitol Hill
Sneak Preview: Tuesday, February 9th, 5 – 8pm
Art Walk: Thursday, February 11th, 5 – 8pm

Documentary photographer Michelle Frankfurter traveled Mexico documenting the journeys of young people escaping poverty and violence in Central America, riding on tops of dangerous freight trains, and following Border Patrols along the US/Mexico border. Images from her book, Destino, are featured on CNN, the Washington Post, and The Guardian.

Maybe you’ve read recent news on pre-dawn raids and deportations of Central American families. Hundreds of civil rights and others groups are asking the U.S. government to pause the raids and consider other courses of action before sending people, especially young women and children, back to desperate, dangerous conditions in Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.

On February 9th we’re excited to welcome David Ayala-Zamora, who survived torture and persecution in El Salvador, escaped to the U.S. through Mexico, and is now a leading activist and organizer in the Puget Sound.

The exhibit will benefit One America’s work to address recent pre-dawn raids and deportations of Central American families.

Thanks to all of our co-hosts: Councilmember Lorena Gonzalez, One America, and Latina Creative Agency.
