In honor of the 2022 One Book Baltimore selection, Furia, join Creative Alliance's Artesanas to celebrate Latinx culture!

The piñata is a symbol of Mexican culture but has evolved to be part of cultures in other countries such as in the U.S. Piñatas are made in the form of stars with 7 peaks. Piñatas are originally used for posadas, a celebration in Mexico and the U.S. that takes place between December 16th and the 24th. However, nowadays piñatas are also used in various celebrations, such as birthdays, weddings, baptisms, first communions, etc.
