Las Pochadas! Vol. 3 Issue 3
¡Feliz Navidad y Prospero Año Nuevo!
We are excited to celebrate the end of another year and glorious decade!
As we come together with our families for the holidays and sit by the fire with our tamales and champurrado, let’s remember the less fortunate… students! As the cost of an education continues rise and quality lags, Raza students pay the highest price, especially those who are undocumented.
We don’t take much seriously, but access to education is up there with finding a decent taco truck. Puro Pedo Magazine teamed up with Adelante California, Mi Vida and the Special Brownies Art Collective to host another art show fundraiser. All money raised from ticket sales and 50% of art work sales will be donated to the Adelante California scholarship foundation. Any student — regardless of citizenship status — is eligible to apply for Adelante California’s scholarships. This month’s art show will be held on Saturday December 19th at Mi Vida in South Pasadena. Next year, we’ll host two additional shows in Oxnard and Downtown LA. Hopefully our efforts will help to make another students dream a reality.
Last, have you done all holiday shopping yet? If not, don’t worry and make sure to hit up your local grassroots anti-mall or tianguis. Stock up on Frida nichos, jade earrings and Virgen de Guadalupe tin arte.
Hopefully Los Tres Reyes Magos bring you some feria to pay for those tuition increases!
