Arts and Crafts Facilitator
Run and facilitate a kids arts and crafts workshop while their parents are attending our education programs
Project Details
What we need
- Help us organise a 2 hour activity for kids between the ages of 6-12
- Volunteers with experience with planning, organising and hosting these workshop are preferred
Background
We are running a sustainable fashion program for the parents of these children, they will be occupied for 2-3 hours while they learn different units for this accelerator program. The children will also be on site and need to be engaged in an activity at the same time.
What we have
We will source craft materials for the instructor (yarn, pompom makers, markers, pencils, crayons etc).
Why this is important
We would like to give children a meaningful activity and chance to be creative as extracurriculars are not readily available to refugee and asylum seeker children, in particular to explore their creativity.

Community outreach: Community outreach and cultural events, which are curated by the refugee community, to engage different groups within society. Well-being: Provide safe spaces for healing and mental well-being through the arts and recreational activities.
