On celebration day we started with a trip to Escuela Oficial Rural MIXTA school at where the Mayan Art Program (MAP) program came in and painted the school walls. Before MAP came in the school was completely gray and looked like a prison. Map painted large murals on the walls of the school and the principal said within a year grades and participation starting increasing. The murals depict unity amongst the races and ecological responsibility.
