Mission
Founded by multidisciplinary self-taught artist Brujo de la Mancha and Daniel Chico Lorenzo in 2003, Ollin Yoliztli Calmecac (OYC) is an educational organization whose mission is to raise awareness about the history and culture of the indigenous peoples of this continent, and in particular the Mexicayotl tradition and teachings, which flourished in pre-Columbian Central America. In the Nahuatl language, Ollin Yoliztli Calmecac means "school of blood moving in the heart".
