Celebrating Life, Art & Sustainability | Carmen Guerrero + Laura Madden on The Morning Show

This week on The Morning Show, we’re celebrating the art of living — through culture, creativity, and conscious expression. 🌸 💀 Carmen Guerrero – Cultural Coalition & the MIKIZTLI Día de los Muertos Festival “Our stories don’t end — they evolve.” Carmen Guerrero, Executive Director of Cultural Coalition, joins us to share the beauty, meaning, and community spirit behind the 2025 MIKIZTLI Día de los Muertos Festival, happening Saturday, November 1 from 5–9 p.m. at the Arizona Center. This year’s festival features world-class entertainment — including QVLN, Indigenous Enterprise, mariachis, ballet folklórico, live painting artists, curanderas, and more — along with the brand-new Calaca Cantina, a 21+ mezcal-tasting experience that supports after-school arts programs for Arizona youth. ✨ Experience the culture. Celebrate the ancestors. Support the arts. 🎟️ Tickets & info: diadelosmuertosphx.com 🌐 culturalcoalition.com 📸 Instagram: @culturalcoaz 🎨 Laura Madden – Laura Madden Studio Laura Madden, sustainable artist and founder of Laura Madden Studio, joins us to explore how beauty can be a form of activism. Her art blends repurposed materials with bold design, proving that sustainability and luxury can coexist. Laura shares how living mindfully, creating consciously, and celebrating imperfection have shaped both her art and her life. 🌿 Through her collections, Laura invites collectors to embrace the power of transformation — to see beauty not as perfection, but as presence. 🌐 lauramaddenstudio.com 📸 Instagram: @lauramaddenstudio 📧 Email: laura@lauramaddenstudio.com Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 4:33 Interview Carmen Guerrero 17:40 History 23:01 Laura Madden 36:54 Things to Do 🌞 The Morning Show – Your Morning.
