Overview
What was the influence of immigrants on the construction of the identity of La Boca? What did their presence mean for the development of the workers' organization? How was the enthusiasm of the newcomers fundamental for the origin of soccer in the neighborhood? We understand that the creation of Caminito, Quinquela's life, and the art of La Boca cannot be fully understood without considering the role of immigration.
These are some of the questions we will answer on the tour.
We will also visit the famous tenement houses, not only to appreciate their colors that illuminate the neighborhood, but also to learn about the living conditions of those who lived in them.
The food, the relationship with the river, and the port will be part of our visit.
We believe that with this walk through the corners of the neighborhood, you will take away beautiful photos and memories, but especially gain a better understanding of the present-day La Boca through its history.
