Our guest this week, Angela Lyonsmith, introduced the non-profit organization she works for called Global Alliance for Africa. She implements therapeutic elements into art programs in Kenya and Tanzania. I think that all art programs in grief stricken parts of the world should have therapeutic intentions. This is something I would love to do. I want to travel and work with kids anywhere in the world. Not to mention the amazing wildlife and scenery that is experienced.
This weeks art making activity concentrated on the dimensions of personal identity. "A" dimension includes- age, culture, ethnicity, gender, language, race, sexual orientation. "B" dimensions include- educational background, geographic location, hobbies/recreational, religion/spirituality, work experience. "C" dimensions include- historical moments/eras. We were to create a collage type of art work that encompassed any of the dimensions mentioned above. Enjoy :)
