The Tourist Centers have organized two watercolor workshops and another art workshop aimed at minors with the objective of facilitating and promoting the development of their creativity and talent. The activities will take place on May 16 and 17, and 24 of the same month, coinciding with the celebration of Family Day and Museum Day, respectively.
“We want to facilitate the appropriate environment so that the artists of tomorrow can deploy all their creative skills and techniques,” explained the Councilor of the Entity, Ángel Vázquez, who also pointed out the importance of fostering artistic practice from an early age: “it awakens imagination, increases self-esteem and concentration capacity, and helps in the construction of values and personal judgment, among others.”

The watercolor will be the thematic axis of the two workshops that the Cactus Garden will host on May 16 and 17, from 11:00 to 13:00 hours.
During those two hours, 13 boys and girls from 6 years old, each accompanied by an adult (in total, 26 places on Saturday and another 26 on Sunday), will be able to explore the secrets of this technique based on the use of color and water to create artistic compositions.
