We are happy that Barrios Orquestados has already been able to open its doors to those who wish to spend their free time volunteering with our project, expanding culture in the Canary Islands!
(…) and for us to fly in the atmosphere, the concerted forces of the sun, amber, magnets and wills are necessary,
but, of all this, the most important are the wills, without them, the earth would not let us rise up (…)
