Our Mission and Purpose
Dedicated to nurturing pride in Latin roots by offering free art classes that inspire creativity, strengthen identity, and connect new generations to their culture.
About Us
We are a non-profit organization made up of artists and entrepreneurs whose mission is to promote our Latin roots and culture through art. We offer free painting classes for children and young people, providing them with a creative and educational space.
We want our new generations to learn about the richness of our past, value our roots, and feel proud of belonging to such a great and beautiful culture. This will help them strengthen their identity, gain greater self-confidence, and develop greater sensitivity toward others.
We are a hardworking and united community, convinced that together we can make a difference. Our dream is to sow the seeds of our culture in every child and young person through art, so that pride and love for who we are may flourish within them.
