cityCURRENT Non-Profit Lunch & Learn Tour: Casa Azafrán/Conexión Américas
Join us on Wednesday, June 14 for our lunch and learn tour of Casa Azafrán and learn about Conexión Américas, sponsored by Dominion Payroll.
Casa Azafrán is the gateway to Nashville’s most international and socially diverse district. In rooms that mirror the beauty of Moorish and Spanish design, Casa Azafrán is currently home for education, health services, entrepreneurship training, culinary and artistic expression, volunteerism, community building, events. It also is a smart way for nonprofits to share resources, meeting and training spaces and opportunities.
Casa Azafrán includes 2,200-square feet of meeting space, plus Conexión Américas’ commercial kitchen Mesa Komal, making Casa Azafrán an ideal location for events, parties, film screenings, corporate trainings, and business meetings. The Casa Azafrán Art Gallery also features rotating exhibitions by local artists.
Martha Silva, Co-Executive Director of Conexión Américas, highlights the Middle Tennessee-based nonprofit organization focused on building a welcoming community and creating opportunities where Latino families can belong, contribute, and succeed.
At Conexión Américas:
- We help low and moderate income Latino families realize their aspirations for a better quality of life by providing comprehensive services: from information and referrals (social integration); to assistance in buying a home (economic integration); and opportunities for developing leadership skills (civic integration)
- We help our host community (long-time residents, non-profit groups, government agencies, businesses) understand the presence, contributions and challenges of Latino families in Tennessee, primarily through our advocacy and public awareness efforts.
