Full families lived an unforgettable morning at the Mega Workshop "To paint the environment," organized by the Olga Sinclair Foundation, that celebrated its 15 years of existence in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture and My Environment at Soho City Center.

The event, which brought together more than 1,800 boys and girls, distributed at three levels of the commercial centre, became a unique space to promote creativity, environmental awareness and family union through art.

The day began with the musical presentation by Spanish violinist Isabel Villanueva, followed by the participation of our Metropolitan Youth Symphony Orchestra of the Panama Youth Orchestra and Coros Network by Professor Alexis Fong Castillo.

The workshop emphasized as a meeting place for the family, where children and adults worked together in creative activities related to care for the environment.

The Scouts of Panama were also an active part of the event, demonstrating their commitment to environmental challenges.

Olga Sinclair, director of the Foundation, expressed with emotion: "That's my legacy: to bring art to children and to the country, to get them out of leisure and from the streets. It's a value that my parents have inculcated me and I want to share with the new generations."

For her part, the Minister of Culture, Maruja Herrera, gave some warm words of welcome: "Let the transformative power of art live! That event is to enjoy with families and to remember that art and music are holy moments that strengthen communities and imagination."

In addition to artistic activities, the main aim of the workshop was to educate about the importance of recycling and environmental protection.

Boys and girls such as Carlos Guevara, age 10, expressed their enthusiasm: "I loved to participate with Olga Sinclair, share with other boys and draw about the environment."

Euri Aparicio, father of one of his assistants, emphasized: "I love that these forms of cultural activity are organized. It's a different experience to inspire our children and help them develop their artistic skills."

As an additional incentive, 10 participants were recognized with a painting kit as an award for their creativity and dedicated activity.

The mega Workshop "Let's paint the environment" was not only a space for artistic expression but also a call to reflect on the role of every individual in protecting the planet.
