Background

The Sovereign Art Foundation (SAF) is having an upcoming art project - Nature Art Workshop - and is recruiting some volunteers to support us. SAF is a charity founded in 2003 that uses the therapeutic power of expressive arts to support wellbeing and positive change in vulnerable children. This year’s Nature Art Workshop will be held in Mui Wo on 2 December, with the aim to appreciate nature and connection with nature through art using upcycling materials, a great way to enhance their ecological value.

What we have

We will provide a briefing for the volunteers to equip them with the activity goals, children’s need and requirements, so that they may best communicate with the children and facilitate the event effectively. Also, we will provide confirmation notes to volunteers after the recruitment.

Why this is important

This activity provides an opportunity for children to explore Hong Kong nature with art along with art therapists and art facilitators. This will fulfil our goal to nurture and increase children's overall wellbeing, social skills, and competencies and promoting positive life adjustment through the therapeutic power of art.
