About the project

HISTORICAL WAGON

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The volunteers will participate in the enhancement and restoration of the wagon assigned to the Bebeteca which, like all movable heritage, needs constant maintenance. In this camp, the participants will paint the wagon with special restoration techniques so that it is ready for use as soon as the sanitary conditions allow it. If time and conditions allow, volunteers will be able to perform other maintenance tasks on other cars. In addition, the volunteers will have the opportunity to visit and enjoy the city of Puebla, a World Heritage city with tangible and intangible cultural wealth. The tasting of typical dishes such as mole will be one of the culinary experiences that the participants of this camp will be able to live.
