Joel visits Projeto Vida in São Sabastião

On Friday morning, Joel visited Projeto Vida, a project that works with marginalized youth, providing educational and arts programs, sports, and more. Joel was welcomed with a percussion performance and a karate presentation. He then gave the students a presentation of his art and answered their many questions, and got a tour of the facility.
