Our purpose is focused on promoting the development of socio-emotional skills through art.
The Selva Creativa Art Center is a non-profit organization that offers social-emotional support to adolescents through three art projects that allow us to cover diverse tastes, abilities and personalities. In each project, weekly classes are taught continuously to a group of selected adolescents who are willing to be constant and disciplined.
Our 3 art projects are:
OROPENDOLA
Project focused on the art of body movement through three disciplines: aerial dance, acro gymnastics and contemporary dance
Vision: Development of cultural shows for the community, national presentations with international projection.
Number of Scholarships: 20
LAPA
Project focused on visual arts, specifically drawing and painting, inspired by the design and construction work of the typical Costa Rican cart
Vision: Elaboration of an artistic exhibition
Number of Scholarships: 15
DANTA
Project focused on plastic arts, specifically pottery and ceramics, inspired by the ancient traditions of clay modeling and the elaboration of utilitarian pieces
Vision: Elaboration of an artistic exhibition
Number of Scholarships: 15
The three projects are accompanied by socio-emotional workshops and group or individual therapies.
Currently Selva Creativa works in the community of Nosara, but the projection is that the art center will work through a mobile unit that allows projects to be transferred to various communities in the country that request the service through donations.
