ART for ALL KIDS

Picture
WHAT WE BELIEVE IN 
Many children and young adults lack opportunities for building solid futures. But perhaps more importantly, they lack the means to express themselves, are not able to deal with traumas they have faced and have difficulties to develop new narratives for the future, based on a healthy perspective on the past .
​

Extensive research has shown that the visual arts hold significant potential for healing in those who have experienced traumas, by providing a springboard for people to express themselves and tell their stories. This not only includes reflecting on the past, but also forming new ideas and solidifying dreams of the future: the arts enable people to tie past experiences (even negative ones) into a larger narrative of their lives, which builds resilience and motivation, promoting positive social outcomes.

OUR CURRENT PROJECT
In June 2022 ARTandSEEK and MIRA are going to join our friends of the Sant'Egidio Community at the 'School of Peace' in the Bronx, New York. 

We will meet the children for three Saturdays and explore the theme of "My community and I" . We'll draw and paint and go around the neighbourhood to catch some good pictures. Finally we will create a big art work with all our stories!
Looking forward to start this exciting project.

FUTURE PROJECTS
ARTandSEEK is developing various projects to offer free art workshops to children and young adults that have experienced traumas or live difficult situations, to help them express their creativity and better understand their feelings.

We are looking for partnerships with schools and social institutions who deal with vulnerable children and young adults to be able to realise our projects.
