ART PROJECTS and VOLUNTEER

They are very conscious about the underwater world and the marine life, so they have been undertaking different projects such as reef monitoring and marine conservation.

Anita, who is also an artist, combined her love for Art together with her love for the ocean. This is how Atelier Aquatic was born, a NGO which wants to engage communities in education and marine conservation, through artistic initiatives and events.
