At 'El Arte de Amar', our passion is to nurture the growth and cultural identity of Latin American children. Founded by Rosario, our mission is to strengthen family and community ties through bilingual education and the fine arts. We are dedicated to teaching Spanish and instilling respect for our traditions, roots and cultural diversity. In a world where racism and discrimination still exist, we strive to provide a safe space where children can explore their identity, increase their self-esteem and prepare for a bright and positive future...
It's easier to build strong children than to fix broken adults.
