The murals gave expression to the concerns and issues of the community. An important theme was the issue of the environment. Another important theme was the protection of children. The theme of indigenous identity and roots was treated at length and woven throughout the murals. Another theme was that of gender equality.The project has attracted the mural artists throughout Central and South America, become an impromptu meeting of the public art situation in Central and South America and El Salvador.
