In October 2005, a group of artists united more by long  personal relationships  than schools or forms of expression, decided to assemble together to make a presentation at the Morro Castle, the historic fortress that sits at the entrance of Havana’s Bay . The monument – because of its architectural beauty and history- would make an excellent enclave as an art gallery. Furthermore its magnificent passages and expansive rooms were readily available for use by the members. The artists who started the group were:
 
      Esteban Leyva, Alejandro Leyva, Javier Guerra, Mayito,
Li Domínguez, photographers  Enrique de la Uz and Carlos Alvarado (Salvadoran based in USA)

   Shortly after,  Emilio Nuñez joins the ensemble as  work coordinator  with the assistance of attorney Lazaro Estrada.
 
      The organization issued a statement of purpose entitled "We are !T" due to its unique yet diverse artistic composition while  giving a humorous  touch  to the endeavor.
