826LA@Hammer: Crafting the Magic Within Her

  • This is a past program

Explore Caribbean and Latin American literature through magical realism’s women characters and create a character sketch of a protagonist for a future story that celebrates strength, heritage, and magic within. 

Led by Heidi Lepe, a Honduran and Mexican-American writer with work published in La Raíz Magazine as well as the Latina-led news and media pages of HipLatina and FIERCE by Mitú.

All public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from an anonymous donor.   

Major support is provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, and the Elizabeth Bixby Janeway Foundation. Additional support is provided by the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs and all Hammer members.   

Digital presentation of Hammer public programs is made possible by The Billy and Audrey L. Wilder Foundation.  

Hammer public programs are presented online in partnership with the #KeepThePromise campaign—a movement promoting social justice and human rights through the arts.
