Celebrating Art, Community, and Roots
Carrasco Concepts was born from a deep love for art, education, and community. Founded by Jessica Carrasco, a proud Watsonville native with roots in Mexico and El Salvador, the brand reflects a passion for creativity and a heartfelt commitment to giving back.
Through Carrasco Concepts, Jessica shares her visual art with the world while also supporting local youth. A portion of each sale funds the "Born and Raised in Watsonville Scholarship," a $500 award for graduating seniors from the Pajaro Valley Unified School District. Jessica believes that investing in young minds is essential to building a stronger, more vibrant community.
Beyond her personal artistic journey, Jessica works with Arte Del Corazon as the Creative Youth Development and Director of Community Engagement Lead. Whether creating, teaching, or advocating for the arts, she remains deeply committed to uplifting Watsonville and inspiring future generations.
