Tortilla Social: Communal Culinary Experience & Writing Workshop

Join us the first Tortilla Social of 2018 for a communal culinary and creative experience in collaboration with The Free School for Writing! This workshop will combine the dialogue, artmaking, and sensory experience aspects of the Tortilla Social with the discussion and narrative aspects of a bilingual writing workshop.

Food and artmaking supplies will be provided!

This event is free, open to the public, and child-friendly.

Facilitation by Denise Delgado of the The Free School for Writing and Urbano's Artist in Residence, Salvador Jimenéz-Flores.

Tortilla Social is an interactive printmaking and food workshop using a multi-functional tortilla press designed and led by Urbano artist in residence Salvador Jiménez-Flores. Participants of all ages have the opportunity to use the tortilla press to make their own art print and to eat freshly made tortillas.

The Free School for Writing is an ongoing project of writer and artist Denise Delgado and is based in Boston, MA. It is a modular, itinerant classroom where writers, artists and lifelong learners can exchange skills and ideas around writing, literature, and education. Interdisciplinary arts projects in partnership with community organizations also promote literacy and use writing to address local needs. At this informal, welcoming “school,” caregivers can bring babies or others in their care if they need to. Learn more here: http://freeschoolforwriting.tumblr.com/

Tortilla Social, including this event, was made possible with funding by the New England Foundation for the Arts' Creative City Program, with funding from The Barr Foundation and with additional support from the Boston Foundation. Tortilla Social has also partnered with the Urbano Project and Hyde Square Task Force as community partners on this project.
