What does it mean?
“Mesa de Masa” translates to “Table of Dough”. Coming from a Latin family, get togethers consisted in gathering around a table, work together to help one another to create delicious homemade meals. This would mean making masa; kneading it and assisting one another regardless of task to create so many good things to share with everyone.
Mesa de Masa embodies the transformative power of collaboration. Inspired by the limitless potential of dough, the concept celebrates what can be achieved when we come together. Just as dough can be molded into something extraordinary good through teamwork, so too can our collective efforts help shape inspiring narratives and create a meaningful impact.
