Estancia Trocoman, home of Creativity Heals Foundation,
is an integral part of the Mother lands of Estancia
Ranquilco. We share the river, the lands, our horses,
friends and our families. We realize and are thankful
for the privilege of having the responsibility of the
guardianship of these great lands.
Estancia Trocoman differs from Ranquilco in that we are not a traditional cattle estancia but rather more a quiet retreat for artist types that wish to rejuvenate, recharge and to create in their particular media with the support of Mother Earth. We are located in Argentina, deep in the heart of the vastness of the Andes Mountains bordering on Chile in Northern Patagonia. Creativity Heals Foundation's outreach program in the nearby pueblos of El Huecu and the Mapuche reservation, Colipilli, is an avenue to share what we co-create. Sharing is an important part of the healing process no matter what the particular challenge. Our close ties with Ranquilco provide immediate access to other volunteers and always an interesting array of guests from all parts of the world. The original web page of Creativity Heals was more of a portfolio of Virginia Neary Carrithers, founding president, as an artist living with Multiple Sclerosis since 1976. Its purpose was, and still is, to inspire and to give hope to those in need with the message of the healing power of creativity. Now that we have received our 501 (c) (3) tax status giving us more opportunity for grants and tax deductible donations, we are opening new doors and looking for other like minded people to help in our mission of healing body, mind and spirit and in return, giving to others. We believe that art in it's various forms is a universal language understood by all. Art is of the spirit and has no physical boundaries. It goes deeper than words and has the ability to transform whatever challenges are before us. Creativity Heals, as a Foundation, is in its formative years. We invite others to participate not only in Community Outreach, but in building infrastructure in alignment with natural law and harmonious co existence with all beings. Please see volunteer opportunities above. Write to ginnycarrithers@yahoo.com with questions, costs, donations, and your inspirations. As I usually live in remote places without immediate phone or email connection, please be patient. One of the first volunteer positions open is for a live-in artist assistant! Please enjoy browsing this page and www.ranquilco.com.
Enjoy The Journey with Me! |
