Asociación del Museo de la Cerámica de San Vicente (Asociación San Vicente)
$85,000 over two years. Asociación San Vicente will build a community museum to exhibit and sell handmade indigenous ceramics produced locally. The community museum will protect the cultural and natural patrimony associated with the region's indigenous Chorotegan traditions and improve socioeconomic conditions by increasing the income of artisans and building local capacity to sell ceramics directly to tourists. It will also generate international publicity for San Vicente as a site of artistic and historic interest centered on preservation of indigenous culture. Some 500 artisans, farmers, peasants and youth will benefit from the project's multiple focus. (CR-327)
