<h2>STAMP On the Go -- STAMP &amp; Beyond Taos, New Mexico | June 6th - 13th|</h2>
<p></p>
<h3>This Camp is for <strong><span style="color:rgb(192, 80, 77)">SELECT students entering 11th grade to just graduated</span></strong> who want to reflect on their own leadership style and self. They will share and build upon on what they have learned through STAMP to feel prepared for their next chapter in life. During this camp we will escape the city to better connect and focus on self – self awareness, self love, and interpersonal communication. At CIRCLE we try to lean into the idea of self care, without taking care of self, how can we continue to take care of our communities? This camp is more of an opportunity for our committed STAMPers, and as a thank you and farewell. This program will support campers through transformational leadership opportunities while  affirming their understanding of identity and self, no matter what changes they face.</h3>
<p></p>

Ana Marina Studio (vendor)</strong>, is a jewelry Artisan currently based in Denver CO. She was born and raised in Mexico City and migrated to Los Angeles California when she was fifteen years old.

<p><strong>

Abuelita's Tiendita (vendor)</strong>, came to life thanks to the Covid-19 Pandemic. Co-founder and namesake, Abuelita, was worried about losing her housekeeping job during the pandemic. So she started a side hustle of selling face masks, bought from Mexico, at an emerging outdoor market. During that time, Abuelita realized lots of artisans in Mexico were struggling due to the lack of tourism and they were unable to sell their handmade goods which helped support their livelihood. At this point, Abuelita had already recruited a couple of family members to help her with her outdoor market stand. That’s when we came up with the idea of importing Artisan handmade goods so we could help the artisans stay in business during this tough time and also to share our Mexican culture through their folk art.
