Some simple bamboo structures and an acrylic cover gives rise to this self-managed urban agriculture space and home of the neighborhood’s children’s film club. Recycled material such as bricks and rubble was used, and bamboo, a low cost sustainable material.
In the space not only have cinema cycles and urban agriculture workshops been carried out, but it has also hosted a fair economy projects, boxing class, and language courses.
The entire project was carried out in the form of ‘minga’, this is what the union of neighbors for a construction is traditionally called in Colombia.
