ORANJESTAD – For over a decade, Paseo Herencia Mall has been committed to help inspire talented Aruban youth to achieve their goals in sports and education. This year, the mall is proudly expanding its program with a new edition: Gift of Arts, an initiative dedicated to support and stimulate our youth in arts and entertainment.
Gift of Arts is a new program for 2025, which follows the same mission of the Sports edition: giving financial support to talented youth in creative art, including dance, theatre, music, visual art and other forms of artistic expression. The program will offer a donation to help cover expenses related to the youth’s development in the artistic field – it is about investing in local creative talent who can represent Aruba in a cultural and educational way.
For over 10 years, Paseo Herencia supports the community through its Gift of Education program, which helps students with academic ambition, and since 2023, with Gift of Sports, which offers support to athletes with international level and goals. This year, Gift of Arts is adding a new dimension to recognize talent which presents itself in a variety of ways – not only in the classroom or on the field, but also on stage and in the art studio.
