NIÑOS EN EL ARTE FOUNDATION
ART AND PHYSICAL CULTURE WORKSHOPS FOR RURAL SCHOOLS
Niños en el Arte values the everyday life and interests of children from vulnerable sectors, where spaces for artistic creation and production are almost nonexistent.
Childhood and adolescence are the stages of life where people are most spontaneous, creative, and imaginative, provided that the family, social, and cultural context allows it.
The project aims to strengthen artistic expressions in childhood and adolescence, based on the development of multiple languages that complement the learning acquired in schools.

To strengthen the expression, communication, sensitivity, and critical thinking of children aged 4 to 17, in the schools where we work, through workshops that prioritize the development of multiple languages and critical thinking.
