Through this approach, participants were able to recreate meaningful pieces while reflecting on the value of family and individual unity from an ancestral perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the day, attendees took a guided tour of the museum, where they got an up-close look at the ornaments that are part of the permanent exhibition, delving into their historical and cultural significance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The workshop was led by the museum's collaborators, Mr. Di\u00f3genes Alcal\u00e1 and Emily \u00c1vila, who guided participants in creating their own pieces using natural materials and traditional elements, such as: seashells, sea snails, seashells, natural stones (agate, tiger's eye, and amethyst), and silver adornments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The experience was conceived so that each visitor could live the Taino essence through love, identity, and connection with our roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Likewise, the museum informs that throughout the month of February, the Dominican Identity Workshop on National Symbols, dedicated to the national coat of arms and flag, will be available.
