Learn more : The Sculptors of the Grand Rue and the Rue du Magasin de l’État, form a community of artists living in a neighborhood of downtown of Port-au-Prince. They have developed from a number of years, a rich cultural tradition in the field of Arts and Crafts. In December 2009, "Atis Rezistans," the sculptor of the Grand-rue have hosted the first "Ghetto Biennale." At the event, renowned artists were invited to come in the peripheral zone of the Grande-rue to achieve an artistic work on site. To quote the words of the writer John Keiffer, it was "a third dimension... an event, a moment created through a collaboration between artists from radically different backgrounds." HL/ HaitiLibre
