    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The artists-volunteers will benefit creatively by experiencing the astonishing beauty of this town and its coast-line. La Pedrera and its community are by the edge of the sea, surranded by two gigant beaches, and a huge open sky. Moreover, this place has lots of natural resources and materials to create art from such as wood, clay, sand, stones, and more importantly, recycle materials to explore biorenewal art.
