Going Dutch / volunteer arts
An important element in the running of Cortijada Los Gázquez and Joya: arte + ecología is the reciprocal nature of our relationship with volunteers. We have had young folk from all around the globe staying with us and in return for food and a roof over their heads we ask them to help out in the day to day running of the place.
Many of our volunteers are drawn to our arts and ecology agenda which is great as you have a like minded soul at your door always keen to be involved. Often it’s not just a passing interest in the arts that brings them to us but the fact that they can already be accomplished artists. Currently we are drawing to an end a few weeks with the company of Dutch man Diederik Leutscher. So in tribute to him I thought it would be nice to publish some of his photography. All this work has been made during his volunteer period with us….
