Carmen Garayalde Zubizarreta (August 8, 1913 – September 8, 2002) was an Uruguayan teacher, exiled political activist, and artist.

[1] Carmen Garayalde was born on August 8, 1913, in Montevideo, Uruguay, to a financially secure family of Basque immigrants.

She would also take lessons in painting and engraving from Cecilia Marcovich, Demetrio Urruchúa [es], and María Carmen Portela.

[3] Garayalde had a close friendship with Amalia Polleri, with whom she made a poster that unanimously won a contest held by the Commission of Ladies to send humanitarian aid to Spain in 1937.

Two years later, the two women appeared at a show organized by Demetrio Urruchúa held at the Plaza de Cagancha.
