Murals Made from Recycled Materials Being Made in Historical Center of Puerto Plata<\/STRONG>
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic7\/19\/2013<\/P>
\n

A<\/SPAN>s part of the FOMIN project \u201cTourism Programs Based on Cultural Resources,\u201d which is underway as part of the Tourism Cluster of Puerto Plata, artist ChecoMerettedio began the first of several murals that will be made out of recycled materials and will decorate the pedestrian areas that are being developed as part of the Historic City Center project.<\/P>
\n

The concept consists of using plastic containers, glass jars, bottle caps, glasses, bottles, pieces of wood, metalsand other used products to transmit characteristics related to the history, culture and folklore of the people of Puerto Plata, making the city center streets themselves an open-air museum.<\/P>

\n

The first, \u201cEl tiempo de los Taim\u00e1scaros\u201d [The Time of Taim\u00e1scaros], is a representation of one of the most colorful festivals of the city\u2019s popular tradition of Carnival. This mural is being done on Padre Castellanos Street, on the corner with General Gregorio Luper\u00f3nAvenue, also known as the malec\u00f3n<\/EM>, or seaside walkway.<\/STRONG><\/P>
\n

Karina Abbott, coordinator of the Tourism Programs Based on Cultural Resources project, urged the community to welcome this initiative and conserve the murals, which are part of the preservation of the local identity.<\/P>
\n

Ms. Abbott reiterated that all companies and businesses interested in donating material, can get in touch with the offices of the Tourism Cluster by email at info@discoverpuertoplata.com<\/A> or by calling 809 320-1259.<\/P>
