In April of 2015 Carin Steen founded the
Mural Arte Antigua Project in order to bring sponsors and public walls in need
of a lick of paint together. More than a dozen murals later, the latter part of
the name doesn’t seem too appropriate anymore, since most murals were painted
in rural communities, some very far away from Antigua Guatemala. Hence the name change in
January of 2016, into MuralArte Guate.
Not that the project’s murals are restricted to Guatemala only (because three murals were
painted in Honduras
in 2015), but it just sounds better than MuralArte Central America. Hopefully
there’ll soon be a need to change the name into MuralArte Global!
