For Sarita Hernández, Printmaking And Community Activism Are Interconnected

Multimedia artist, printmaker, zine maker and pie baker Sarita Hernández found their home through artmaking. Moving to Chicago in 2015 from southeast Los Angeles County, Hernández feels held by the Chicago arts community. Now, as a teaching artist and the co-creator of a local zine collective Marimacha Monarca Press, Hernández hopes to build the same sense of togetherness for others. This is what their Chicago sounds like.
