Can you say more about your work as a volunteer art teacher?

I volunteer with a nonprofit called Fundación Valle La Paz that provides resources for schools to have art and music lessons. Every week, two music teachers and I drive to a town in the mountains near Valle de Bravo called Mesa Rica. We teach the children basic drawing and watercolor skills, and we provide a safe place for free expression, self-discovery and the construction of community values. My class is about finding silence to see inside, learning to respect others’ work, practicing the wonderful act of image making and finding pride in who we are.
