Celebration: Offerings were made to the Cross of May with “décimas” written and recited by José Pérez and music by Tambor y Gloria of the Bigott Foundation.

Remembrance: One year ago, the “Cruz de Mayo” which has been traditionally celebrated in La Palomera 20 years ago, was rescued.

Reflection: The IPC program has allowed us to think and discover many things about Caracas. From the perspective of various groups that have been part of the program, artistic, pedagogical and practical strategies were shared, as reflections of the content that shaped each project, as well as their effect on the city and citizenship.

The strategies were posted on each team member's social media: @enlace_arq, @ciudlab, @itanera, @labociudadano, @ganass13 and #ambararmas. These were complemented with IG live interviews.
