When you do the work, everything else follows. 🙌🏾

Thank you acephoenixart for speaking up when it meant the most and inspiring us all to do the same!! 

Today in collaboration with letsvamonos & houstonlatinacollaborative we were able to recognize an Artist/Creative/Entrepreneur and Community Advocate acephoenixart with the houstonlatinacollaborative 2025 Mujer Poderosa Award!!

Our award is given in Celebration of iconic women who use their voice (culture and art) to change power structures and make an impact in our community. 

Thank you for the work you’re doing and we hope that others can learn about you and join your #ImJustaGirl movement!! 

I also want to give space and show gratitude to edwardpollard.esq for not just showing up but for being there in support of Local Latina’s like Ace Phoenix - Suly Florian and so many others who face injustices and unfair treatment simply for being Women “in a “Man’s” world”- your willingness to learn and listen to acephoenixart story and the legacy she is building for Women Artists and her family, was seen and is much appreciated. 

Last but not least desireecelestina of letsvamonos and our CCO of houstonlatinacollaborative for consistently seeking out these types of opportunities to amplify and highlight local women who are not only doing incredible work, but also advocating for their industry and the women within them!! Thank you for making this connection and recognition possible!! 

Community work is what makes us who we are 💝
