Charrúa Language, History and Art at the End of the Lunar Cycle

Fecha
WednesdayJune 22, 2016

For the first time in our city, the I'Tu Community will be sharing ancestral knowledge of the Charrúa Nation People in simultaneous workshops on Language, History, and Ceramic Art, open and free of charge, on the occasion of the Celebration of the End of the Lunar Long Cycle, where all indigenous peoples celebrate the change of cycle or change of year. 

The proposal was presented at the Permanent Council for Women's Rights, which operates within the scope of the Women's Area of the Directorate of Preventive Management and Promotion, in which the I'Tu Community actively participates. 

It is a purpose of this Directorate to foster the expression of diversity, promoting intercultural, religious, gender, generational, ethnic, ideas, and beliefs dialogue that has as a framework the implementation of the golden rule shared by all cultures, religions, and philosophies that says: "Treat others as you would like to be treated".

Likewise, it is framed within the political actions related to the Latin American and Caribbean Coalition of Cities against Racism, Discrimination, and Xenophobia signed by the mayor Enrique Cresto on March 23rd of this year, by which our city assumes membership in that Coalition. 

In this way, it fills us with pride that the I'Tu Community has chosen our space to propose this exchange of knowledge, and for the first time in our city, this opening to share the Charrúa Language is carried out, after a long process of recovery by the indigenous peoples of our region. 

Those who wish to register for the Workshops may do so from Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Directorate of Preventive Management and Promotion, at 789 San Luis St. 
For the Ceramics Workshop, participants must bring the material (modeling clay - 1 kg)
