Interesting projects to get to know:
The Project Odisea 20 is a cultural project founded 2005 in the biggest slum area in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in the Villa 20/Lugano. The project Odisea 20 is a non-governmental organization. It´s objective is to give a space for the wide range of creativity found in this neighbourhood, and help transform it into artistic products to be sold in Argentina and the rest of the world. By this way the habitants of the Villa 20 get new ideas and visions for their future and their life and exporting artistic products to the society we hope to change the visions the middle class has got about the “Villeros”. We founded a small publishing house, a music label and an art gallery in the slum with the intention of producing only things made by the residents of this area. We offer a variety of workshops to children and adults.
To realize their projects they are looking for some sponsors. Every kind of donation is welcome.
