Empowering Communities and Preserving Heritage: Our Collaboration with MUNAG and Obras Sociales del Hermano Pedro
At From the Mayan, we are proud to partner with the Museo Nacional de Arte de Guatemala (MUNAG) and Obras Sociales del Santo Hermano Pedro (OSSHP) to support and celebrate the rich cultural heritage of Guatemala. Our collaboration focuses on providing authentic Mayan handicrafts, including our renowned worry dolls, crafted by local families in the highlands of Guatemala. This partnership not only helps preserve traditional arts but also contributes to meaningful social causes.
Celebrating Guatemalan Culture at MUNAG
The Museo Nacional de Arte de Guatemala (MUNAG) is a beacon of cultural preservation, located in the historic Real Palacio de los Capitanes Generales in La Antigua Guatemala. The museum showcases over 3,000 years of Guatemala's artistic heritage, from pre-Hispanic artifacts to contemporary art. Visitors can explore a diverse collection that includes pottery, jade, religious art, and modern pieces, all reflecting the country's rich history and cultural evolution.
Our products are proudly featured in La GalerÃa, the museum's gift shop, which supports OSSHP's mission. By purchasing our worry dolls and other traditional handicrafts, visitors not only take home a piece of Guatemalan culture but also contribute to the social projects and art restoration efforts led by OSSHP.
Supporting Social Initiatives with OSSHP
Obras Sociales del Santo Hermano Pedro (OSSHP) is dedicated to providing medical, educational, and social assistance to those in need in Guatemala. Founded by the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor, OSSHP offers a range of services, including specialized surgeries, educational support, and emotional rehabilitation. Their commitment to transforming lives through high-quality care and support aligns perfectly with our values at From the Mayan.
Our collaboration with OSSHP allows us to contribute to their impactful work. Every purchase from La GalerÃa helps fund their initiatives, ensuring that more individuals receive the help they need. It's gratifying to know that our products play a part in supporting such a meaningful cause.
