Convention Portfolio

Mestiza Makes is an AAPI + queer owned apparel and art brand based out of Las Vegas, Nevada. Hailing from the west coast, my designs are inspired by the Asian diaspora + queer community, Harajuku fashion, and more. Community building is very important to me so part of proceeds go towards various mutual aid groups.

Some examples of my booth displays can be found below.
