Fundacion Arte del Mundo

: Fundación Arte del Mundo (FAM) is a non-profit arts, language and literacy organization in Baños de Agua Santa, Ecuador. We are known for our volunteer/ voluntourism program which provides people of all ages a perfect opportunity to experience the arts and enjoy literature, theatre and cultural events while sharing their creativity with children. Our prime focus is operating a dynamic children's library (La Biblioteca Interactive de Baños) and offering activities, workshops and events in all aspects of the arts. Each afternoon children line up at the door of our free children's library ready to read and eager to participate in activities created and led by volunteers. We bring the magic of theatre and cinema to the community and serve as a popular meeting place and cultural center in the evenings. Bringing together local people and international volunteers is an important part of our programs. During the seven years that La Biblioteca Interactiva has been open, almost 500 volunteers from over 30 different countries have enjoyed the Fundación Arte del Mundo experience.
