The third weekend of our 2010 workshops was just incredible! The kids came up with a lot of own ideas and worked creatively and concentrated in their wonderful animals. Each child is becoming an expert of an animal and every weekend they learn more about the species, the feeding, the living space and whatever else may be important in ...the specific context. It was heart-rending to see the way the children got into that topic and some of them even wanted to go on working when it was time to go to the river. What a compliment! Apart from that we where happy about a guest from Germany. Tobias worked for 11 month at Gálapagos and on his way back home he passed the finka to let the children profit of some of his work experience at the island. We cant wait to go on working the next three weekends and non of us wants to believe that its already half-time over...
15 happy kids, 3 happy talleristas and one more than happy "casi tallerista" as well as Edison (the person in charge of the Salesianos) went saturday morning united in a "camioneta" to the finka to start working.
Challenging-Fun times enjoyed the kids, while working with the new materials like wire and balloons combined with papier-mache, they all did a great job and never surrendered! The kids seemed to be very inspired by the "cloud forest and its animals" subject why Fanziska decided to follow Jamina and Liza for now. The next weekends will follow the farytail ideas and dreams. As some of the kids in contrast to our `talleristas´ already know the finca and the sequence of tha bambú workshops, it was a beautiful exchange of experiences and knowledge and we are very happy about the first results.
Everybody enjoyed as well, the so tasty and healthy food at this paradise-like place and if there has to be something to complain it would be the mosquitos that tried to eat us... but... lets just say that there ist absolutly nothing to complain :D
With special thanks to our facilitators and the kids!
We are happy to tell that the first weekend of our 2010 workshops worked out very well. Franziska, Jamina and Liza - our talleristas from Hamburg - and eleven of the bambu kids got to know each other, went to the river near the finca and enjoyed the ...wonderful nature.
Now we are so much looking forward to start working with the kids coming saturday. The theme of Jamina and Lizas workshop is going to be the cloud forest and its animals. The children will be free to choose an animal they are becoming an expert of during the period of the workshops. They will reconstruct the animals and their living spaces in an creativ way. Franziska offers the children the opportunity to create their own farytail and to build the protagonists of their stories with papier-mache and paint them as colourfull as they feel like :)
The upcoming weekends we are having some special guests on the finca we tell you more about soon.
With many thanks to our donors and everybody else that made 2010th bambu workshops possible!

Right now we are getting ready to organise next year's workshops and are still looking for people who would like to lead an art workshop in Quito, Ecuador next summer! We are looking for volunteers who would like to carry out an art workshop in the summer of 2010. We offer organisation of the whole project in cooperation with the street children project “Proyecto Salesiano: Chicos de la Calle”, as well as the opportunity to be implementing your own creative workshop with the children, and working within the unique environment of the Ecuadorian cloud forest. Workshops we carried out in the past included photography, video, painting, and sculpting workshops. Any creative ideas are welcome!
Our former workshop leaders all felt very enriched by the experience and they said they recommend it to anyone interested to be a part of this. So if anyone is interested in leading an art workshop with Ecuadorian street children, please contact us for further details!

We were represented at the 12. Lateinamerikafestival in Hamburg, which took place at the Museum Of Ethnology 11th and 12th of October. Elisabeth, Jonas, Marita and Niklas showed some videos and pictures, while answering question about the project, the motivation, the location and the kids to interested visitors from all over the place. We made important contacts and hope that we could spark interest in our work. Thanks to the organizers, see you next year :)

bambúPresentation 2009 available in:English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic
After 1,5 month of work, joy and a lot of new experiences, the bambúProjekt closed with a presentation of the works created this year by our group of 20 kids (thanks to our Talleristas Belén & Mariuxi everything was finished to the date).
We installed several photographs and paintings from last years workshops in the Centro Cultural El Aguijón (thanks to Galo for colaborating and sponsoring the place and the equipment, gracias loco!) and had Jonas introducing the crew and the people involved. As a surprise to the kids, a representative from STEFAN BRANDT came on stage and donated 30 shirts with the green hummingbird-logo printed on the front. The kids immediatly put them over :)
The workshop leaders introduced the upcoming presentation of works. Jimmy (11) and Robinson "Chicho" (10) also had something to say and surprised the audience with their cool and fearless manner.
Then we started projecting the videowork from one group and the animation piece from the other group of kids, which partizipated the last 60 days.
Thanks to everybody who supported us and believed in the idea and purpose of our work!! Seguimos Adelante!!
In a few month there will be a major exhibition with material from three years of bambúProjekt in Ecuador!! Soon more on this, here on this website and on facebook (facebook(at)bambuprojekt.org)...
