We are so proud of the beautiful work the children continue to create. Working with them on and off for over six years has truly been a blessing, and seeing their growth, joy, and confidence through art means everything.

Week 2 was all about colour, texture, and joyful expression. 🎨

Through finger painting and handprint art, the children practiced colour recognition, sensory exploration, and creative freedom.

Inclusive art spaces like this help reduce stigma and discrimination against children with disabilities, reminding communities that we are all special and unique.
