Thanks and goodbye…

So… It’s done. Our office is emptied out and closed. Arte Acción Copán Ruinas no longer exists. Alter a month of closing ceremonies, goodbye parties, diplomas and gifts for kids and facilitators, the Arte Acción Copán Ruinas members have closed the door behind them. It was a sad moment, although we’ll get back together in January to continue the Maya Project, the Archaeology Project as well as all kinds of workshops we plan to offer the children in the small village of Santa Cruz. So our work continues although no longer as an organization. Sad indeed, but it also opens new windows and we’re all excited to face new challenges. For now I’d like to thank each and every one of you who have contributed to almost twelve fabulous years of art, fun and community development. A big thank-you to our partners of Arte Acción in Tegucigalpa; the volunteers who shared their time and experience with us; our wonderful sponsors for their generosity and confidence, our friends who stood by us all those years and of course the children of Copán who’ve been the best participants ever.

Thank you!

I wish you all a wonderful 2011, that it may bring peace, wisdom, creativity and lots of fun…
