Whats new 2019

This year started off with a bang as we welcomed 3 top artists to execute 4 new additions to our Gallery of Giants.

We were thrilled to host ROY Graffiti, Mantra Rea & Dulk this year. We watched and marveled at their methods, grace, expression coming alive through art.

Roy installed a beautiful sea turtle in conjunction wth the marine awareness & touristic program, Guias Turisticas del Refugio Nacional de Playa Hermosa. This wall was installed at the local elementary school just in time for the students’ return for the 2019 school year.

Dulk & Mantra Rea painted a total of 3 murals in Jacó, at Calle Madrigales & the beach road from the Farmers’ Market. They each had a solo composition and, for the first time, a collaboration project. All three are magical gifts of love and creativity for the city of Jacó.
