Dr. Sandra Hurlong, President of Intercultural Open University Foundation (IOUF) attended the sculpture inauguration at San Pablo Etla Ecological Preserve.  San Pablo Etla Ecological Preserve also added the Corn Goddess sculpture by Oaxaca artist Jose Garcia to its gardens. Garcia is an internationally renowned artist from San Antonino, Ocotlan, Oaxaca. The new garden complements the traditional medicinal herb garden, children’s playground, community center, and alternative energy projects that the Ecological Preserve uses for its many educational projects.

IOUF, along with its consortium partners Universidad Azteca and Central University of Nicaragua support and commend San Pablo Etla Ecological Preserve for its preservation of nature and its ecological and educational endeavors.
