đ A dream in motion. đ
Today I sent off the request to have Butter Together officially printed â not for sale yet, but to take the next step in building something bigger. đ§đâ¨
These first real copies will help me share the vision, gain support, and bring more power and funding behind the Butter Together Movement â so one day, we can mass print and place these books into the hands of children around the world. đđŤ
Holding the printed pages already felt like a dream⌠but soon Iâll be holding a finished book that represents hope, belonging, and community â everything Butter Together stands for. đ

Wow! Honestly, could not be more thrilled with this yearâs poster design from @lynn_oleum ! The 2025 theme was decided at the beginning of the year and RISE UP feels more and more appropriate each day. Lynn did a wonderful job incorporating the theme of togetherness through community resistance into her design. We are excited to see how the theme is incorporated into other aspects of this yearâs event - the samba parade theme is âStill We Riseâ and art is always a beautiful form of resistance and this theme is sure to show up unexpectedly in vendor booths as well!

11â x 14âprints made @bugpress of âJaguar in the Liliesâ an original art piece made by yours truly. Honoring my Central American ancestry I chose the Jaguar âBalamâto be the central theme of this piece. Jaguars are Lords of the Forest. The biggest of the five predatory cats in the Mayan region, they often times can be found by the rivers playing and hunting in the water, hence the water lilies. Jaguars are sacred animals that represent feminine energy and are correlated with the cosmos, itâs spots symbolize the stars above. In Mayan tradition they are the Nahual for the symbol âIxâ. For a limited time, the price for a print is $40+shipping if you canât pick it up @bohemiantattoo_eurekaca .
