Role

Project Activities

Week 1
Carry out first-step artistic activities with beneficiaries so they have their first contact with various artistic media (e.g., drawings vs. painting, sculpture, photography, etc.).
Divide the final project into smaller activities and define responsibilities for each part of the entire creation.
Organize a brainstorming session where team members share ideas, themes, and inspiration for the project.
Build and present the schedule of activities considering beneficiaries from practical learning to "hands-on" (e.g., peer-to-peer guidance, chain drawings, puzzles, etc.).
Bring interactive courses to understand the beneficiaries' media through arts and their professional and personal dreams for the future throughout the week.
Week 2
Create a Personal Development Plan for each participant to track their weekly improvement through a coaching system.
Take time for individual or group reflection on the personal artistic goals of the project. Participants can discuss what they hope to achieve or learn during the process.
Work on an initial draft of the main design piece (e.g., the first scenes of a play, the first strokes of a mural painting, etc.) and then organize a feedback session with beneficiaries and mentors or partner representatives.
Organize a workshop where participants can collaborate on a small artwork or experiment with different project-related media (e.g., painting, sculpture, digital design).
Dynamic: Set up a short and fun challenge, such as creating a artwork in a limited time or using only specific materials.
Week 3
Dynamic: Open Studio Sessions (Provide participants dedicated, uninterrupted time to work on their individual artworks while having access to a collaborative environment for feedback and inspiration).
Take beneficiaries outside the classroom to explore the local community, including landmarks, parks, and cultural traditions.
Provide weekly lessons linking the development of art skills and creativity with beneficiaries' dreams and plans for the future.
Bring data regarding Arts & Employability in the world and request a case study or a presentation from groups about the link between arts and their future (diversified through subjects, research fields, cultures, etc.).
Use libraries and computer labs to diversify research spaces and build an interactive environment for case study.
Week 4
Feedback: Provide participants with constructive feedback on their artworks in a supportive and collaborative environment, helping them refine their work and gain new perspectives.
