El Puente WEPA Festival

Sept. 27
12-6p

As a part of this year’s WEPA Festival hosted by El Puente, we will be bringing together artists to celebrate, share, and create an archive of beauty stories in our neighborhood.

WEPA’s theme this year is to protect what we love and uplift the power of culture as resistance and we hope that you’ll join us in solidarity and support of El Puente. The block party will have live music, arts, dancing, and activities for all ages.

Salon will celebrate beauty and culture as resistance with watercolor portraits for an archive project in collaboration with Samantha Hahn alongside the launch of our latest (Salon)imprenta poster “Salons are Pilars of Our Community” in collaboration with Alex Pacheco and Laramie Glen.

Artists:
Free watercolor portraits by Samantha Hahn

Brow bleaching by Laramie Glen sliding scale $35 - $55

Flash stick and poke tattoos by Alex Pacheco sliding scale $75 - $100

Salon will have a written and oral history station dedicated to documenting guests relationship to hair and create a small journal to archive the people and stories of Los Sures on that day.
