When artist Tanya Talamante arrived in Vermont, she wanted to find friends who were also from Mexico. In Vermont, that can be more challenging than other states. Just 2.3% of the state’s 643,000 residents is Latino. But through some mutual friends and Facebook, Talamante met Elvira Tripp, a designer. They went out for coffee and talked for hours. That was about 10 years ago, and they’ve been friends since. “We’ve been each other’s support,” Talamante said.
