The Families of Color Committee Presents…  Musical Merienda

“Merienda” is a light meal or sweet/savory mid-afternoon snack and is observed in places like Spain, Portugal, Italy, as well as Hispanic America, Philippines, North Africa (Morocco), and Brazil. For this event, it’s basically a snack-y social hour set to the tune of a favorite BIPOC artists playlist!

Bring any mid-afternoon snack you’d like to share (Hot Cheetos? Capri Sun? Mexican pastries from down the street? Hand pies? Fruit?). Can’t bring anything? Don’t stress about it- we’ll also be providing an array of our favorite snacks to share with you too. All families of color, students of color, and educators of color at SB are welcome to join in the fun.

We’ll meet in the school library on Wednesday, October 12 at 4:30pm. Come get to know our communities of color here at the school at our first event of the year!

If you have questions, have song suggestions for the playlist, and/or would like to help support community spaces for families and students of color, please reach out via email to Jasmine Pulido (jasmine.m.pulido@gmail.com) or Kay Doherty (Kaydumlao@gmail.com).
