initiative: cultural camping.<\/span> <span class=\"relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem] transition-colors duration-100 ease-in-out\">This program aims to bring artistic experiences directly to rural communities by integrating cultural activities into over 500 campsites across the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1789\" data-end=\"1821\"><strong data-start=\"1789\"
