Pictured above is our newly opened art studio, led by local artist Yovana Mamani (pictured far left), who also attends our church Aposento Alto. Yovana has been a delightful addition to our ministry, recently coming on to serve full-time in the ministry, after having graduated from University with her art degree. Some of her students are pictured above Lupe, Ninoska & Luz. She is currently teaching the girls basic pottery skills, which only makes sense w/ the name of the the girls' home being 'El Alfarero' (The Potter's house). Pottery classes in addition to being a great stress reliever for the girls, also equips them with another skill they'll have before leaving the home. We want to thank CBC Highlands in particular for help getting the art project up & running by donating the equipment (art table, stools, some supplies) for the studio.
