Description
Art is a powerful form of expression. This project aims to enable young people to express themselves on key societal issues—particularly sustainable development—through various artistic practices. Throughout the year, they will explore different art forms while reflecting on the environment, equality, and anti-discrimination. Through workshops and discussions, a core group will create artwork to be exhibited in the village. One-off sessions will also raise awareness among other groups, including children from the leisure center, daycare, early childhood support (RPE), after-school programs, and local associations. To extend its impact, the project will partner with local organizations, adapting the final presentation to the proposals and capabilities of everyone involved. Led by the leisure center, the volunteer will support all stages of the project, including sharing it with children and teens on Wednesdays and during school holidays.
