Funding Our Dream/ Walls of Hope When the dream of creating a school of art in El Salvador came to be more real, when the community of Perquin welcomed the proposal and embraced the idea of a constant insertion of art in the community, we still had to face the challenges of funding that would allow the dream to become true. Walls of Hope/ The School of Art and Open Studio of Perquin would have not been able to exist without the generosity and trust of many people who believed that this project was possible. We would like to thank Intersection for the Arts our fiscal sponsor from the very start of the our school’s first steps. We would like to thank and honor the ANGELS of Walls of Hope in El Salvador now becoming a national and international collaborative and community based project of art, education, human rights, diplomacy and conflict resolution. We exist thanks to your contributions. Potrero Nuevo Fund, Christine Pielenz and William Laven.
