Celebrate with Memphis Cartonera!
Come learn about the fast-growing “Cartonera” movement from South America, and its revolutionary new way to think about art and literature’s place in our lives.
We are a cooperative publishing house dedicated to democratizing literature and art, to foster literacy, and to work in sustainable ways.
Join us for our exhibit and workshop and:
• Learn about the origins of Cartonera publishing in Latin America, and now in Memphis
• Meet the local artists and organizations spearheading the project (Centro Cultural Latino, Latino Memphis, Cazateatro, Danza Azteca Quetzalcoatl, Refugee Empowerment Program, and Caritas Village)
• See original works and hand-made editions of the classics
• Paint, read, and make your own Cartonera book
• Enjoy Enedyi’s Tamales and aguas frescas, paletas from La Michoacana, and other South American treats
