“The Creation” FURSCA project

Looking for volunteers to be part of a FURSCA research project! The goal to this research project is to bring awareness of the Latino community to Albion and Albion College. It specifically concentrates on what it’s like to grow up with two different cultures and how it can impact our identity based on family, friends and societal expectations. This project is also artistic, so there is a portrait section and possibly a SFX (special effects) makeup section. You are not required to speak Spanish to participate and you don’t have to be a student, anyone can participate as long as you are over 18+ and part of the Latino community. Please email Dulce Martinez at ddm12@albion.edu if you are interested in participating.
