Some times (all the time), all you need is some creativity and a big heart to change the world for the better. Today we would like to present to you a project by @arrozymangophoto called Puppets in the community PROJECT that is about teaching the art of making puppets with the use of waste. It is aimed at children who live in communities of limited resources and high rates of violence.

The founder of this project grew up in constant contact with paintings, music, and theater.
He began to make handicrafts based on seeds of different trees and hemp back in 2000. He has over 15 years of experience in working with children, teenagers, and adults. He has been giving theater classes, organizing puppet theater festivals for children, student theater sample, as well as giving workshops for the development of different classes of puppets as thread, rod, guiñol, muppet, chronopios. Under the theme of conservation of the environment, the theater group collects waste or garbage for the manufacture of puppets.
The plan is to carry out a series of free workshops where the founder will teach the art of making puppets with the use of waste. He will teach children who live in communities of limited resources and high rates of violence in Guayana City located 50 km away from Upata. Since there are no garbage collection services, the project will also raise awareness regarding environmental conservation.

This project needs ONLY $638 to buy the necessary materials (rulers, paint, scissors etc.) and cover fees. Classes will start on April 11, 2019, and end on May 25. They will be held every day with a duration of 3 hours which would add up to a total of 42 hours of workshops. Already, more than 20 children have registered for them, ages 8 to 15 years old. They will learn to design, make and paint their own doll. A wide range of psycho-pedagogical tools to stimulate children's creativity will be used.
The project has been recognized by almost ten Backers and there is still time for you to become one of them. Some funds have already been raised and at the time of the writing of this post, there is around $500 left to collect. We are sure that you will recognize the beauty, creativity, and the environmental side of this amazing project and give it the support it deserves.

We love it when project founders manage to surprise us. We are not easily surprised. This project combines two major aspects of impacting the world and creating a better future. It educated and entertains children while at the same time, it helps the environment. The creativity, energy, and the idea behind such a huge plan are remarkable and bring much joy to us. This is why Fundition was started in the first place, to see and to support brave and visionary individuals who are creating a new reality.

To me, art is one aspect of live that mines creativity in diversity, yet, with all-round uniqueness. @arrozymangophoto has a good prospect being hinged to the educational sector. They deserve a good support.
I wish them success in their fund-hunt to meet their target.
Thanks @Fundition for being an awesome crowdfunding platform.
@arrozymangophoto 's target for children is amazing especially for Ciudad Guayana community. Moreover, sourcing for raw materials from waste is amazing as the puppet project is another phase to materials recycling. Kudos to the team.
However, I wish to ask @arrozymangophoto of their plan to expose the created art works to the blockchain??
I think that for me the most important thing apart from using recycling as a didactic tool, is the creation of a work based on the wonderful world of Blockchain.
Currently I am writing the first draft of the script of the play "Blockland", so I have titled this play in which I plan to show the world under the vision of the traditional economy "disastrous" and the alternative to a new financial economy and more than that a very different lifestyle to the one we know. For this I will use symbolic characters like the "banker" the bad character and some citizens who will move to another world known as Blockland in which all are supportive, there are no debts and the banks do not exist.
The idea is to be able to make audiovisual materials that obviously can not show the splendor of the work, so I decided to do some tutorials on how to make puppets and leave the script of the work of puppets with specifications for others can repeat the experience anywhere in the world.
Beautiful plan!
