About Luiza

Luiza developed arts programming for immigrant mothers residing in the Berkshires. Building on her previous work with the Berkshire Immigrant Center, and now in collaboration with Latinas413, they have organized mother- daughter photography sessions, photography exhibitions, and workshops to map and discuss resources for immigrant mothers. These materials were used for creating a handout advocating for immigrant rights within the region. Luiza hopes to strengthen the connection between immigrant mothers and local support, to highlight the work already done by Latina community leaders, and to educate the broader community about specific challenges faced by immigrant families.
