Frida Kahlo, 2025

We're going back to our 2013 coverage of this iconic artist who turned her pain, passion, fear, and unique outlook on life into remarkable and memorable art. Her bold subject and color choices (as well as her bold life choices) defied convention and sent her to the heights of international acclaim.

Our 2026 Field Trip to London sold out in record time, but you can get your name on the waitlist at Like Minds Travel.
