Watch the video about the Pinata Factory project put together by Coop Image Group and others. " The piñatas are the output but are far less important than the community activity and awareness brought about by the process of manufacturing. Over 100 Chicago area youth, more than 40 community members, and volunteers helped to create, install, and document this project. " Some pictures gathered throughout the 2 years the factory was in "business" are located here.
