Puerto Rican interdisciplinary artist Antonio Martorell held a series of community art workshops focused on water conservation awareness during a residency at the San Juan Bay Estuary.[^1]

Separate public reporting has documented that Puerto Rico's Aqueduct and Sewer Authority spent over $50 million on private contracts over the past two decades to reduce non-revenue water. That loss rate has remained around 60% since at least 2004.[^2]

No additional details on residency duration or planned future workshop dates were included in the filed record.
