EWB Syracuse and ArtRage Gallery team up to raise funds for water supply project
The Syracuse Professional Chapter of Engineers Without Borders and ArtRage Gallery presented “La Camioneta” by Mark Kendall. The film follows the journey of a decommissioned school bus from the United States to Guatemala.
Kendall’s film takes the viewer on “a journey between North and South, between life and death, and through an unfolding collection of moments, people, and places that serve to quietly remind us of the interconnected worlds in which we live.”
