Pallapupas are professional clowns with an artistic and medical training; they have created an area for smiles and games in the hospital. Their characters, innocent, sweet, unpredictable and free no fear to failure turns them into a character that is very closed to people who are admitted to hospitals, especially to children.

Fundació Roger Torné purpose is focused on children’s health in the prevention area. Pallapupas purpose is humanazing health through a smile. Both Fundació Roger Torné and Pallapupas wanted to share this common objective just by collaborating on this event and, together, through smiles and games, transmitting that it is possible to improve children’s quality of life when they are suffering health problems.

Marduix is one of the most renowned puppets groups in our country. Their staging full of light, colour and sensitivity has made them a mandatory reference group in the art of transmitting by the use of puppets. Marduix have crated a character and a whole symbology starting in “¡Pintar el aire!, the first Mapendo Collection story, in order to be able to transmit children the importance of taking care of the air we are breathing.
