A new season of Estuario Resident Artists begins. Join the artist Angélica Rivera and be part of the realization of the Mural with conscience; a project where you will discover—and learn how to illustrate—the species that inhabit the Condado Lagoon Natural Estuarine Reserve.

  • June 3 – Botanical illustration: from observation to expression – with Botanist Mario García Quesada
  • June 10 – Marine Life and Me – with Oceanographer and Marine Diologist, Dr. Jorge Bauzá
  • June 24 – The Elements, Nature and Me

All workshops will be held at the Jaime Benitez Park, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. These are free of cost. For more information, contact Lara Medina at [email protected]. See you there!
