Name: Esteban Davenport

What is a Cultural Connection
Park?

 "A Cultural Connection Park is a space for

recreation, leisure, education, and connection
with the environment surrounding the park; its
community, nature, and culture."
Project Description
 The "Cultural Connection Park El Brujo" will enhance “La Ruta Del
Brujo" with the “El Mercado Del Brujo”, The Open-Air Museum, and a
route to “La Piedra Del Brujo”. This multifunctional space, designed as a
meeting point, aims to share the history, culture, and local identity,
especially from Granizo. It will host “El Mercado Del Brujo”, providing a
dignified place for local entrepreneurs, featuring recreational areas, a
community garden, and green spaces adapted to the area's water
conditions. The municipality offers workshops, and the park will serve as
a platform to showcase crafted products. The focal point will be a
pergola-style stage, ideal for activities and events, also serving as a
rehearsal and presentation space for local artistic groups.
 Mission
 The Cultural Connection Park El Brujo in
Granizo aims to boost local identity, revive
the economy, and “La Ruta Del Brujo”
experience. It focuses on showcasing the
history, identity, and culture of Olmué,
particularly Granizo, by creating a
sustainable and appealing space for
residents and visitors. The park also
supports “El Mercado del Brujo,
collaborates with local entrepreneurs, and
encourages community involvement,
contributing to the cultural and economic
enrichment of the region
Vision
 Our goal is to make Cultural
Connection Park El Brujo a special
place in the area, known for helping
Granizo's local identity and economy.
We want it to be a spot that makes the
community proud, brings in visitors,
and cares for Olmué's history, culture,
and nature. Through fun and
educational activities, we aim to liven
up the area, make the community
stronger, and have a positive impact on
the region.
