Mexican Sacred Heart Photo Frames at Meriam Library

About this event

In this seasonal edition of Innov8 we will be making a Mexican sacred heart (el corazón sagrado). El corazón segrado is a powerful folk art and religious symbol representing divine love, healing, grief, and deep devotion. Blending Spanish Catholic heritage with bold indigenous color palettes, it is a cornerstone of Mexican culture, appearing on home altars, jewelry, textiles, and murals. We will use small wooden heart frames that can be decorated with your own photos (open space is 3" wide), pre-printed Mexican art, rhinestones, glitter, and milagros (tiny metal charms in various shapes to represent specific prayers or gratitude for answered miracles). All supplies provided.
