August, September and the beginning of October in Perquin

Finally, I arrived to La Antigua, in this quiet, tranquil month of August, in this peaceful Friday hoping for a time to rest, to reflect, to stop the craziness of so much activity, running from here to there, to calm the intensities that have been occurring since I arrived to El Salvador in March of this 2005.

August, September and the beginning of October in Perquin

Finally, I arrived to La Antigua, in this quiet, tranquil month of August, in this peaceful Friday hoping for a time to rest, to reflect, to stop the craziness of so much activity, running from here to there, to calm the intensities that have been occurring since I arrived to El Salvador in March of this 2005.

All that I had imagined or expected before coming about Perquin in
this year of 2005 was insufficient in regards of what it really has
been happening. It has been a sort of macro production of art with the total support and participation of the whole community, children, youth and adults, campesinos, people who work in local NGOs, people who work for the Mayor’s Office, people who come from far away communities.
