It is with great pleasure that we share with you the following announcement:
For the second consecutive year Instituto Español has been asked to participate in the SL8B (Second Life 8th Birthday). Last year with we were able to let the virtual community know about our education project that we have had for the last 4 years. Also, we were able to show all the artistic and cultural activities that take place throughout the year. Besides our Spanish Language classes, we try to give a fully immersive program for our students in regards to the customs, culture, and art of Mexico and Latin American countries. If you would like to know more about the goals that the Instituto Español has for Second Life residents, come visit our information booth from the 22nd of June to the 2nd of July on the SL8B Sim Spectacular. Our team will be available to help you and answer any questions you may have.
