As a Nicaraguan-born & raised Mexican-American, I’ve had the privilege of experiencing many different cultures- but Nicaragua will always be home.
There’s so much to be proud of as a Pinolera, but one of my favorite things to share with others is our food. For years, I carried a deep sense of homesickness, and La Carreta became my little piece of home here in Houston.
Join us for our summer series as I continue sharing pieces of my culture and upbringing while exchanging stories of heritage, identity, and resilience with others.
This is The Cultural Exchange

IT’S PRODUCTION WEEK!
@williamgeoffrey and I have been planning this film since summer 2025 and we’re so excited to share it with the world on AUGUST 1ST, 2026 AT @matchouston (SAVE. THE. DATE)
Our vision is coming to life this weekend as we begin filming & production through the weekend- but we’re looking for donors to help us carry out our summer series.
Our project is fiscally sponsored by @freshartsorg which means ALL of your donations are tax deductible- no matter how small. Every $ helps us reach our goal of bringing this project to life, but if you’re unable to give financially — we kindly ask that you like, comment, and share what we’re building with your people.

The Cultural Exchange is a community-driven initiative that brings people from diverse cultural backgrounds together through art, music, and storytelling. Rooted in the understanding that identity is shaped by both personal and generational experiences, the project creates intentional spaces for connection, expression, and dialogue.
Through a series of immersive events, it amplifies underrepresented voices, supports local creatives, and fosters meaningful cross-cultural relationships. By blending creativity with shared experience, the project encourages empathy, challenges assumptions, and builds a stronger, more connected community.

Ibraim Nascimento is an international, Afro-Brazilian artist from the historic city of Cachoeira, Bahia; he has exhibited his work throughout Brazil and the United States, from California to Texas. Ibraim’s artwork is rich with soul, culture, and tradition. His art is fundamentally embodied, and thus with each brush stroke he shares a piece of his journey, from his upbringing in Bahia to his migration into the United States. Ibraim’s art is meant to invoke emotion and connection and is as much performance as it is acrylic on canvas. While Ibraim’s work is deeply connected to Brazil, he rediscovered himself in the Latinx and Black art communities of Houston. For him, art is a joy that only exists at the moment you experience it.
See if you can be the first one to find the turtle shirt in our scavenger hunt that we’re doing with @tinyexchange
follow along to see the journey and if you’re the one who finds the shirt, make sure you make a story and tag us. $2 from each turtle shirt sold will go towards the local turtle refuge to help preserve turtle lives.

Thank you @kodeysaldana for designing our flyer, and tiles so intentionally to celebrate the diversity and heritage of all the artists from this hunt.
“Designated as the national bird of Nicaragua since 1971, the Guardabarranco represents natural beauty and resilience. “Guarda” means guard/watcher, and “barranco” means ravine or canyon, referring to the bird’s nesting habits.”
