This year’s pop-up is presented in loving memory of Debra Castillo, who championed Ospina’s work as a community maker, activist, and artist. Ospina and Castillo had envisioned building this initiative into an annual gathering. In honor of Castillo’s legacy, Ospina is committed to continuing the pop-up each year as a space for cultural celebration and collective care.
