Editor’s note: Mexico City’s cultural life thrives in both headline-making events and quieter spaces of connection. In this edition, our local roundup explores world-class coffee, jazz and children’s workshops, while we meet the people behind Mi Valedor, an organization supporting people experiencing homelessness and other vulnerable circumstances through practical services, creative workshops and opportunities to publish and sell their work. Their stories show how art can become a means of self-expression, income and community—on each person’s own terms. We also look ahead to Nov. 14, when Shirley Manson and Garbage will play a free concert in the Zócalo. From a personal zine to a public stage, these stories invite us to experience the city through the people who help shape it.
