Tia proudly announces a new partnership with Tlaqueparte.  The partnership was cemented during a meeting with Tlaqueparte’s President,  Carlos Maytorena Martinez Negrete (second from the left),  Tia’s President, Laura Libman (far left), and Dr. Francisco Rico (center) from Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara’s Community Medicine Program.  Also attending the meeting were long time volunteer, Patricia Garibay (far right), and Promotora sisters, Maurilia (seated) and Carmen Huerta Salas (second from right).

Tlaqueparte is a traveling exposition of gorgeous fine art, handicrafts and artisan works from Mexico and Latin America.  Tlaqueparte has large lovely shows in Hermosillo, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Veracruz and San Antonio, Texas.  Tia plans to organize a trip for friends of Tia to their show in late October/early November, just in time for holiday shopping!

If you are interested in joining us for a fun, overnight trip to Hermosillo, including a lovely dinner at one of Hermosillo’s finer restaurants, email us at tiafoundation@cox.net.  Stay tuned to our website for more details.  In the meantime, check out Tlaqueparte‘s website!
