Art 27. Youth urban art: lifestyle and a different way of thinking about things

The Hip Hop culture with Break Dance and other scenic arts become lifestyles and ways of thinking for young people in the different districts of Metropolitan Lima, particularly the districts of Ate and San Juan de Lurigancho. Cultural manifestations of young people in public spaces, have managed to transform the stigmatization that civil society had generated on their attitudes, without perceiving that these spaces allowed the personal development of these young people, improving leadership, self-esteem, coexistence and social relations. They are alternative steps away from gangs and drugs, focused on self-realization.
