ALCHEMY
experiencing an island's transformation
The Caribbean island of Puerto Rico has a rich history and continues to experience rebirth and revitalization. When all is said and done, what do we envision for the island?
Alchemy is defined as a process of transformation, often associated with magic -- turning lead to gold, for example. However, the concept of "magic" is more real than most people think.
This site serves as a platform to share the alchemy of Puerto Rico - its uniqueness in form and its transformation into something even more extraordinary (and the people responsible), based on personal experiences and stories from the local community.
