Hi Folks,
I'll be in Puerto Plata 1/19 - 1/26, 2007 & I am a collector of folk art. I don't mean tourist junk. I'm looking for skilled but untrained people whose work reflects the indigenous culture of the area - paintings, scupture, whatever. I'm willing to go virtually anywhere on the Island if there is a promise of good works. I'll even visit people in their homes, if they would prefer. I don't speak Spanish but I'm being accompanied by a Spanish speaking friend. Thanks for any help you can give me.
