North of Colombia, in the Atlantic department, life and inspiration emerge.<\/p>
San Jos\u00e9 of Puerto Alegre, as the municipality of Ponedera was known in its origins, has a pottery tradition strengthened by its artisans with the drive to deliver masterfully crafted pieces of art.<\/p>
Like the tortoise, emblems of their territory, which find in Ponedera the ideal place to start a new lifecycle, potters find the perfect clay in their land to craft their work by hand and skillful kicks to their pottery-wheel.<\/p>
Arcillas de Puerto Alegre, a social project developed and promoted by Gases del Caribe Foundation and Promigas Foundation, is synonymous to new beginnings, magic, hope and cultural identity, while understanding that change, like all good things in life, is a process that takes patience and time.<\/p>
Their work preserves the ancestral legacy of pottery masters from Ponedera, Atlantic, keeping alive an identity that is transmitted from generation to generation.<\/p>

Thanks to you, these families find through Arcillas de Puerto Alegre the means to create a better life for themselves and generations to come.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
