Estuario Resident Artists – projects of 2023

Explore our new virtual exhibition in estuario.org—it highlights projects made in 2023 by Estuario Resident Artists Angelica Rivera and Armando Román.

In Mural con conciencia, Angélica Rivera combines the skill of muralism with the study of the species of the Condado Lagoon Natural Estuarine Reserve. Through educational workshops and creative processes carried out with neighbors and friends of the Reserve, Angelica reminds us of the importance of protecting and preserving these natural treasures.

Los sonidos del estuario surrounds us in a unique auditory experience by the hand of Armando Román. His project allows us to hear the symphony of wildlife and urban life that inhabits the San Juan Bay Estuary. Armando captures the essence of the estuary through recordings that invite us to connect more deeply with nature.

This virtual exhibit is an opportunity to explore these projects interactively from the comfort of your home. Immerse yourself in the works of these talented artists, here.

Weekly water quality monitoring

Evaluation conducted Thursday, October 5, 2023. We have a GREEN flag for the Condado Lagoon Natural Estuarine Reserve. However, the Aguadilla Street station exceeded the Beach Action Value water quality standard of 70 CFU/100 ML—we recommend avoiding this area. Remember to avoid the water during rain events. Have a good weekend!
