On Monday, July 22, a group of nine youth and young adults tried to cross from Mexico back into the United States through a port of entry in Nogales, demanding to be admitted back to the country they call home. The action was organized by the National Immigrant Youth Alliance.

The Gloo Factory hosts local teens at our shop to learn the art and skills of screen printing.
The t-shirt was made as part of their FindingVoice class at their high school. Since the theme for this year’s project is identity, the students collaborated with Tucson artist, Jeff Speigner, to create a design that represents the collective and unique identities of the 40 plus students. See more of the students work on the FindingVoice Project Website.
