π¨π Paint the most colourful street in South America β La Boca Caminito in Buenos Aires
Blazing yellow. Cobalt blue. Blood red. Emerald green. Corrugated metal houses stacked against each other along a single cobblestone lane, tango dancers on the corner, a bandoneΓ³n playing in the shade, and the old Riachuelo dockside at the end of the street. Caminito is Buenos Aires at its loudest, brightest and most joyful β a 100-metre stretch of pure porteΓ±o soul that has drawn painters, tango dancers and travellers for over a century. And it is your painting.
Put the record on. Pour the mate. Let the brush find the yellow. Paint it on your iPad or print it and paint on canvas β both are included.

β¨ A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
La Boca was the port neighbourhood where Italian immigrants β mostly from Genoa β arrived in Buenos Aires in the late 1800s. They built their houses from leftover corrugated iron and scrap wood from the shipyards, and painted them with whatever marine paint the dockworkers had left over at the end of the day β which is why no two panels are ever the same colour. In the 1950s, Argentine painter Benito Quinquela MartΓn β who grew up in La Boca β turned the abandoned alley on Calle Caminito into an open-air museum, restoring the colours, adding sculpture and tile, and naming it after a famous 1926 tango, "Caminito." Today it is one of the most photographed streets in Latin America, and the beating heart of Buenos Aires tango culture. Every colour on that wall is a story about someone who arrived here by boat, hoping.
