Pathway to Empowerment as an Arts Director

“Art is too important not to share!” … Romero Britto

It was a warm sunny afternoon in Lima: A perfect day to wander amongst the 1500+ pieces of art works from student of fourteen ADCA schools in the region.

At times it felt wonderfully chaotic, and there were oasis of calm too! With over 2,000 visitors filling our open-air plaza for the opening of the ADCA art exhibition on Wednesday, October 22, students of all ages were thrilled to see their artwork proudly on display, while parents and grandparents beamed with pride. The art teachers from each school received well-deserved applauses from families and students as they came forward for certificates and photos. It was a beautiful celebration of creativity—a chance to explore a wide range of artistic mediums and admire the skill and attention to detail shown by our aspiring artists. The exhibition not only showcased talent but also inspired younger students to imagine what’s possible through art.
