Puppets in the community Update #25

We continue with the intense promotion to raise funds for the fundition puppet campaign in the community, the project dedicated to teach the art of puppet theatre in communities with high crime rates and scarce economic resources.

This second campaign has not been easy, especially because of some health problems that took time and dedication to resume the promotion of the workshop.

I have now moved to a new city, although I had previously made a survey of communities that fit the project's profile, fortunately I have found several communities where the idea can be developed without problems, the capital of Venezuela, a city with at least 5 million inhabitants.

In previous meetings I spoke with community leaders to establish the alliance and let's make joint visits to the most problematic homes and thus attract the children who are necessary, I plan to make a readjustment of the goal because of 25 children count 50 children, which indicates that I need double the resources to meet the demand, the purchase of materials necessary for the realization of this workshop is essential, although the workshop is oriented towards ecology by using a considerable number of recycled waste such as plastic bottles, newspaper and several more, it is necessary to buy paints, stamen, and basic adhesives or the manufacture of puppets.

Some of the topics discussed with the communities are how to face the serious economic crisis that Venezuela is going through as well as suffocate the problems of crime and violence through art. Many have asked me how it is possible to attack poverty or violence with art, to which I have responded in a very practical way that our problems are cultural and therefore all the evils that affect society have a root in the Morales practices that are carried out in homes.

Fostering art in the youngest can be a substantial long-term change in the children involved with the puppet workshop who will learn techniques important to their cognitive evolution. It is less likely that a child who has done the workshop will be involved in an act of violence or criminal activity.

But none of this will be viable if there is no follow-up after the end of the workshop, for which I have determined to make a stable theater group per community which in turn managed to convene other children to follow the same path. So in the not too distant future we will have a stable theatre network that allows us to make samples of many groups in a single meeting.

Another aspect that I have highlighted is the adoption of the cryptomedas, it is necessary that these groups maintain a flow of expenses, and that is where my lecture on the wonderful world of blockchain, especially the steem section, has motivated many to get more involved in the art workshops. Venezuela has serious problems with a super inflation that has left millions of people in a critical state of poverty, with a tool like steem these communities can empower themselves with a new financial tool, a new economy that allows them to beat hunger.

These reasons I feel are enough to support this project that in its first campaign was successful directly serving more than 20 children and more than 100 people indirectly. The impact could be greater but we must take into account the budget. I started with a small amount to make it viable for me and to gain the confidence of the bakers.

If you want to know more about this project I invite you to read each of the updates from the beginning of the Marionetas workshop in the community. As well as review my profile on steemit.

You can calmly review my profile and the experience of the first workshop by reading each of the updates from the purchase of the materials to the final day of the presentation of the play developed by the children as well as the making of the Puppets.
