The team at Tendencia decided to share some time with the young residents at Casa Hogar located in Cabo San Lucas. We contacted Jayson Stirrup, executive director, for guidance. He warmly welcomed us at the location and provided the necessary information to get started.
Just like that, the idea was born! Inspired by two successful organizations that work together, the Art District in San Jose del Cabo and Viva La Plaza in Cabo San Lucas, an entire afternoon would be spent with young artists. We would bring the necessary material for a painting class.
We needed an accomplice to make it happen. We found that person in Manu Castillo, resident artist of the Casa Dorada hotel, who kindly coordinated the painting class where we accompanied the little artists while they created their masterpieces.

With brush in hand and a blank canvas, we relived the magic of childhood when there is no limit to the imagination and the hidden talent in every painter is discovered. The result was colorful and fun memories that we hope will become the first of many more.
Later, there was a small art exhibition, but this was not the end of our day. The collaborators at Casa Hogar joined us for a day in the plaza and the sharing of delicious esquites, taquitos de canasta and fruit sodas.
If you enjoyed reading about our experience, imagine living it! Just contact Jayson directly at (624) 123-1285 or info@casahogarcabo.com to schedule a visit. It can be the beginning of an engagement with tomorrow’s generation.
