Message To Our Community, With Heart and Hope. 💙

Dear Friends and Supporters of Casa Azul of Greensboro,

On behalf of the Board of Casa Azul of Greensboro, we write to share our deep heartbreak and unwavering solidarity with the Latino/Latin American community in Greensboro and beyond. As an arts organization rooted in and dedicated to the Hispanic/Latino community, we are profoundly saddened to witness the increasing targeting, marginalization, and hostility faced by our community members.


Our mission—to celebrate, elevate, and empower Latino voices through the arts—stands in direct contrast to the divisive rhetoric and actions that threaten the dignity, safety, and cultural contributions of our people. It is unacceptable that in 2025, individuals and families who share our heritage and our hopes, are being singled out because of who they are.


We want to say clearly:

  • To our Hispanic/Latino community: You are seen. You are valued. You belong.
  • To our wider Greensboro community: We call upon you—neighbors, allies, local organizations—to stand up, speak out, and show that hate and discrimination have no place here.
  • To artists, educators, leaders: Use your platforms, your creativity, your voices to build bridges, to uplift stories of humanity, and to counter fear with art, connection, and truth.


History has shown us what happens when fear is left unchecked. Yet history also shows us the power of art, the power of community, the power of love. Casa Azul remains committed to being a safe and vibrant space, and a bold voice for our community. We reaffirm our promise: To create art that matters, to honor the stories of our people, and to stand boldly for justice, inclusion, and belonging.


We invite all who believe in a more inclusive, compassionate Greensboro to join us. Attend our exhibitions. Share our message. Invite one more person into the conversation. Be an ally not just in words, but in action.


Together, we will continue to turn pain into purpose—through creativity, through community, and through unwavering solidarity.


Con corazón y esperanza,


The Board of Directors of Casa Azul of Greensboro

All signatories do so in their personal capacity as supporters of Casa Azul of Greensboro.

Queridos amigos y simpatizantes de Casa Azul de Greensboro:

 En nombre de la Junta Directiva de Casa Azul de Greensboro, escribimos para compartir nuestro profundo dolor y nuestra solidaridad inquebrantable con la comunidad latina/latinoamericana en Greensboro y más allá. Como una organización de arte arraigada en y dedicada a la comunidad hispana/latina, nos duele profundamente ver el creciente señalamiento, la marginación y la hostilidad que enfrentan nuestros miembros de la comunidad.


Nuestra misión —celebrar, elevar y empoderar las voces latinas a través del arte— se opone directamente a la retórica y acciones divisivas que amenazan la dignidad, la seguridad y las contribuciones culturales de nuestra gente. Es inaceptable que en 2025, personas que comparten nuestra herencia, nuestras esperanzas y nuestras familias sean señaladas por quienes son.


Queremos decir claramente:

  • A nuestra comunidad hispana/latina: Los vemos. Los valoramos. Ustedes pertenecen aquí.
  • A la comunidad más amplia de Greensboro: Hacemos un llamado a ustedes—vecinos, aliados, organizaciones locales—para que se manifiesten, alcen la voz y demuestren que el odio y la discriminación no tienen lugar aquí.
  • A artistas, educadores y líderes: Usen sus plataformas, su creatividad y sus voces para construir puentes, elevar historias de humanidad y contrarrestar el miedo con arte, conexión y verdad.


La historia nos ha mostrado lo que ocurre cuando el miedo no se confronta. Pero la historia también nos muestra el poder del arte, el poder de la comunidad y el poder del amor. Casa Azul sigue comprometida a ser un refugio seguro, un espacio vibrante y una voz firme para nuestra comunidad. Reafirmamos nuestra promesa: crear arte que importe, honrar las historias de nuestra gente y defender con valentía la justicia, la inclusión y el sentido de pertenencia.


Invitamos a todos los que creen en un Greensboro más inclusivo y compasivo a unirse a nosotros. Asistan a nuestras exhibiciones. Compartan nuestro mensaje. Inviten a una persona más a la conversación. Sean aliados no solo de palabra, sino también de acción.


Juntos, seguiremos transformando el dolor en propósito—a través de la creatividad, la comunidad y la solidaridad inquebrantable.


Con corazón y esperanza,


La Junta Directiva de Casa Azul de Greensboro


Martin Acevedo, Claudia Femenias, Beth Bowles, Felix Delgado, Marikay Abuzuaiter, Zizi Barhouma, Madison L. Boyer, Brian Cockman, Miguel Angel Fuentes, Maria González, Mei Mendez, Teresa Wellendorf
