Oaxacan Wood Carvers

The Middle Schools were pleased to welcome, once again, the Margarita’s Education Outreach Program. Wood carvers from Oaxaca (pronounced wa-hah-ke), Mexico came to both BMS and JMS. They spent the day talking with the Spanishes classes and demonstrating their wood carving skills. Epifanio Fuentes and his wife Laurencia Santiago work together with their children and grandchildren to carve and paint these beautiful sculptures. They spent the day carving an armadillo for the school and talking about their folk art and way of life. They will be at Margarita’s in Framingham Wednesday October 30 from 4pm-9pm. More videos can be found on Señorita Loughlin’s JMS webpage. Emily Loughlin
