Workshops

PART OF THE SALES PROCEEDS WERE USED TO FINANCE 10 WORKSHOPS IN FAVELAS OF SÃO PAULO AND MINAS GERAIS, WITH THE HELP OF LOCAL SOCIAL INSTITUTIONS, TO ENCOURAGE EDUCATION. WE LOOK FORWARD TO EXPAND THESE WORKSHOPS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD AND TOUCH THE LIVES OF MANY MORE CHILDREN.

DURING THE WORKSHOP THE KIDS HAVE THEIR PORTRAIT TAKEN. AFTER LISTENING TO NATHALIE’S STORY, THEY ARE ENCOURAGED TO PAINT THEIR EMOTIONS OVER THE PRINT. THIS IS DONE UNDER A VERY FUN AND RELAXED ENVIRONMENT THAT HELPS THE CHILDREN DEVELOP THEIR CREATIVITY AND BOOST THEIR SELF-KNOWLEDGE THROUGH ART.

EACH CHILD KEEPS A KIT CONTAINING A SKETCH BOOK, COLORED PENCILS, WATERCOLOR INK AND BRUSHES SO THEY CAN CONTINUE TO PRACTICE ART AT HOME AND AT SCHOOL. WE WANT TO FURTHER BENEFIT THESE CHILDREN AND COMMUNITIES WITH IMPROVEMENTS IN FACILITIES, EQUIPMENT AND THE CONTINUATION OF THE ART PROGRAM.
