Mainly we create professionalization and dignification platforms
for urban art, an example of this are Our collective works or
assemblies such as: «Chaos alive, 2016», «Overflowed
intelligence, 2018″ and «Soles and dimmed faces 2019» are
examples of this.

three editions 2017-2019), the “World Hoop Day” (with the
assistance of more than a thousand urban artists and also three
editions 2017-2019).
In addition, we have an educational program called «Scenic
Diversity» which aims to create collective work groups where,
through performing, theatrical and circus art, gender roles,
values within the community and some awareness towards the
general public are questioned because they occur in several
places.

institutions which aims to create a program of labor and
financial inclusion for young people through the components of «creative advertising» and «social banking for young people»
