Some 700 sponsored boys, girls and youth from the Children International-Programa Amigo de los Niños in the Dominican Republic took a training workshop with the purpose of participating in the art contest held every year by the charity, this year’s theme being “My Friends and I”.
Bayaguana, Mendoza, Los Tres Brazos, Tanquecitos, La Caleta, El Flumen, Cienfuegos y Mao were the communities where these young artists showed off their talent and created the works of art with which they will participate in the International Art Contest held in Kansas City, Missouri. |
