Celebremos y adoremos todos los golpes, giros y vueltas de nuestras narices en un entorno grupal pequeño y solidario.
By Word of Nose:

A sewing workshop that aims to bring people together to imagine the nose as a tool for empowerment and connection through narrative making and play.
Participants will learn hand sewing techniques to create their own fabric noses.
No sewing experience is necessary!
This four session series will provide a forum for the group to gather, play, connect and – in honoring the nose – reconnect with their bodies as a source of wisdom, laughter, reflection and expression.
All sessions will be in English and Spanish, we will learn in a multilingual environment.
Let’s celebrate and honor all the bumps, twists, and turns of our noses in a small supportive group setting.

Workshops are free. Materials are included.
Todos los talleres incluyen materiales y son gratuitos.

Holiday Letter Writing for Detained Immigrants
2024-12-10 16:00 - 19:00 | UnLocal, 45 West 29th Street, Suite 203, New York, NY, 10001, United States
Dear Community,

I hope this message finds you well, and that you are taking care of yourselves and your loved ones during these challenging times following the election. I know many of us are feeling the weight of uncertainty, but together, we will continue to face the journey ahead. At Unlocal, we remain steadfast in our commitment to fighting for the rights of all immigrants, including those in immigration detention. It is our responsibility to challenge harmful narratives that divide us into “good” vs. “bad” immigrants.
As we prepare for our 3rd annual holiday letter-writing circle to support our community members in detention, we would love for you to join us in this meaningful effort. Our letter-writing event will take place on December 10, 2024, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at UnLocal’s office. In addition to the letter-writing event, we will also be providing a presentation on how to best support a loved one who has been detained. The event flyer is attached.
In addition to the letters, we are collecting monetary donations for commissary to send along with the holiday cards. Our goal is to send a $25 money order to individuals in detention, and your generosity will go a long way in making this possible. If you’re able, please consider donating and/or RSVP through this Givebutter page.
Your solidarity will help remind those in detention that they are not forgotten.
Thank you for being part of this important work!

UnLocal, Inc. is a community-centered non-profit organization that provides direct immigration legal representation and community education to New York City’s undocumented immigrant communities. Our Education and Outreach team believe that education is a tool for advocacy and strive to empower immigrant communities by connecting them with key resources. We prioritize mutual education as a learning tool to collaborate with our partners and community members to create accessible presentations, webinars, clinics, and events. We intend to destigmatize any misconceptions of immigration law and the socio-political narrative that accompanies it.
