KC Current Design Collaboration

Dulcinea was honored to be the featured artist for Hispanic Heritage Month, where she created a powerful design rooted in ancestry and South American heritage. The design was sold exclusively at the KC Current stadium — the first women’s soccer stadium in the world — with 10% of proceeds benefiting Eye of an Immigrant, a nonprofit supporting immigrant communities. Throughout the event, Dulcinea and her artwork were proudly showcased, representing culture, resilience, and unity.
