At Greensboro's December 2017 Festival of Lights, Leslie had a booth at LeBauer Park. Originally from Mexico, Leslie was inspired to make piñatas so that adults and children alike can use them for special occasions. Leslie is so talented that she can make piñatas in any shape from traditional stars to action figures to jalapeño peppers. At the moment, she is busy making piñatas for Valentine's Day. Leslie is a creative artist with an entrepreneurial spirit. If you want a piñata, why settle for a generic one from a big box store when you can have one that is customized- just for you? Leslie is on Facebook (Pinatas Leslie) and Instagram pinatas_leslie.
Well, the weekend is here and, if you are looking for something to do, there will be plenty of events for Martin Luther King Day. You can start the weekend at 7:30 attending the Shabbat service at the Jefferson Road Campus of Temple Emanuel. UNCG's Chancellor, Dr. Franklin D. Gilliam will be the guest speaker. Here is a list of other activities around Greensboro. While Leslie's Piñatas might seem like something unrelated to the Shabbat Service and MLK Day, Dr. Gilliam will remind us that, as a community, coming together in dialog and celebrating our diversity, can only make us stronger.
When our kids were little, we often had pinatas at their birthday parties. The most fun was when they were blindfolded and flailing about. Usually, we had to take off the blindfold before they killed the pinata! :))

Quite cheerful! I've never been to a party featuring one of those.
