“This training has been a golden opportunity, I’ve got to learn a lot of skills, and programs that I did not know about, that would definitely help my institution in Mexico. Not only this, but the social networking, has been great, the people that I have come to know are now, not only work colleagues, but friends as well.” —Denisse Flores Somarriba from Mexico, trainee at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Washington D.C.
