medicines.

The children represent the seeds that we are planting on the earth, it is of great importance in the growth process to share the traditional ways of Good Living, in the Shanayoy Multicultural School we share the experiential experiences of ancestral traditions, music, art, culture and the traditional language Kamentsa, for young children to learn more about the culture and continue the legacy of this ancient tradition.

The Kamentsa community is in its great expression a community of artists; carvers, weavers, painters and craftsmen with millenary techniques that have been passed down for generations by oral tradition, which have suffered the colonial system and have lost strength. With this project we seek to support and strengthen artisans so that the work and the passing of these traditions to the new generations continue., through the teaching of the arts to the children of the community.
