We were excited to join community artists at the 2025 Plant Material Holiday sale. It was good to finally be back in Altadena. This was the first time many of us had done something creative in the burn zone since the fire 12 months prior. The support from Altadeneans and people from the surrounding community was incredible.
After the Eaton Fire, Blue Milagro artist, Margarita Sosa, created this beautiful papel picado design for the Blue Milagro Altadena dia de los Muerto altar at Bob Baker Marionette Theater. She generously donated the design to the people of Altadena and we have transformed the design into a dish towels and cards so displaced residents can have a reminder of their sweet community wherever they are, until they rebuild. We have been selling dish towels to fund raise for Altadena businesses and community members as the town rebuilds. All proceeds go to help our community recover. This is our love letter to Altadena.
