TEAM projects at KIA prison (Twice a year)

Twice a year, Tur Cos Ta Posibel organizes creative ESC TEAM projects in partnership with KIA, Aruba’s national prison, fostering inclusion and personal growth through art and collaboration. These initiatives alternate between the youth, women, and men’s wings, focusing on diverse subjects such as music, art, fashion, and design. Building on the synergy of past projects like AMIS and FAIS, these activities unite international volunteers with KIA residents, empowering participants to express themselves creatively, develop new skills, and promote empathy and understanding. Each project emphasizes teamwork and social inclusion, proving that “Everything is Possible.”

Past projects

May 2024: AMIS – Arts & Music in Inclusion Settings

The AMIS project was a two-week TEAM ESC initiative in Aruba, uniting international and local volunteers to promote social inclusion through art and music. Focused on the youth wing of KIA, the national prison, participants collaborated to create a mural and record a CD featuring contributions from residents and volunteers, later shared with youth prisons across Europe and the Caribbean. Embracing communal living and cultural exchange, the project demonstrated the transformative power of creativity and proved that, as its name suggests, “Everything is Possible.”

October 2024: FAIS – Fashion & Arts in Inclusion Settings

The FAIS project, a two-week ESC TEAM initiative hosted by Tur Cos Ta Posibel in partnership with KIA’s women’s wing and Artisa, engaged volunteers in fashion, design, and art activities to promote inclusion and personal empowerment. Following the success of the AMIS project, FAIS focused on providing women in prison, particularly those aged 18-30, with opportunities to develop creative skills, fostering a sense of self-expression and confidence. Volunteers worked closely with the women, promoting empathy and inclusion while creating lasting impact through collaborative art and design activities.
