The "Villa Rosa Tap-Tap" (VRTT) event organized by the "Co-creation and Development" COCREAD will take place on 21 and 22 December 2016 in Canapé Vert square and Villa Rosa.

VRTT, a project initiated by Cocread in collaboration with the Dutch Favela Painting Foundation aims to transform public urban spaces from disadvantaged places, into art work and to stimulate entrepreneurship at grassroots level through a sustainable community process. The project combines painting, entrepreneurship and reconstruction. At the end of this initiative was born "Team Boyo", a group of young people from the community who volunteered to direct the painting operations.

Three major activities during these two days :

A puzzle competition for children ages 9 to 12, with art paintings taken from the painting component of the VRTT project ;
A women's football tournament to promote the integration of girls in community initiatives ;
An exhibition and sale of products of the young artisans of the community to stimulate the art in the community of Villa Rosa.
