Bridging Borders with Artistic Unity
Sometimes, to move people all you need is a community of inspired people with a vision and a stage. Our organization believes art is an accelerant for social change. We’re using the emotive power of art and the creative energy of an inspired community to bring people together and imagine a more connected and compassionate world.

Conflict:
Open on a distant world
No good story is complete without a conflict; a challenge to overcome, a mountain to climb, a hopelessly detached and polarized world to reconnect with.
Our story takes place in a world that exists at the murky border between reality and delusions. Where groups of faceless people slog through a colorless wasteland of shadows bisected by the abstract contours of hastily constructed walls.
Craft:
Art is the key
Art has the power to reach people. It’s the connective tissue of humanity. It’s an agnostic back door into the soul. We’re harnessing the universal cultural acceptance of art to bring people together and imagine a more creative and compassionate world. Through art, we’re unlocking our combined human potential by bringing our talent, our passion and our vision to the community.
Drawn to the light, people begin to approach the door. Someone harnesses a beam of light in their hand and shapes it into a bird. The bird begins to sing.

Collaboration:
Build a stage and the artists will emerge
Action requires access. Creative vision requires a vehicle. Every active imagination requires a sandbox. Reaching for the stars requires a launch pad. Our platform is a staging ground for creative ideas, where all the tools and skills come together to enable creativity activity to propagate.
An outsider cautiously emerges through the threshold from the other side. Captivated by the transformation of light into art, they begin to collaborate
Cultivate:
Big things Start small
Endings are just the beginnings of other stories. La Puerta’s story is a journey made up of many beginnings. In our story, we start from wherever we are – with all of the knowledge and resources we can gather – and we grow.
More people gather to and begin to collaborate on fantastic creations. A new day dawns as doors begin to open and light begins to flood the landscape.
