Building Bridges: Artmaking in New York City, Los Angeles, and Suharekë, Kosovo

Posted on June 17, 2010 at 12:30pm 3 Comments

Hello Fellow Culturalistas,



From May 14 to the 22nd my friend and colleague, Terry Lenihan and I traveled to Kosovo to conduct visual arts workshops with children and youth at the Fellbach-Haus in Suharekë, a small town south of

Prishtina. Prior to our trip to Kosovo we ran several different art workshops with groups of Kindergarten through 8th grade students in our respective cities, Los Angeles and New York City, to start off our project.… Continue

Hi Cindy
writing to indicate our interest to participate in the Brave Kids Project.
We training and empower youths in Arts at the Community Youth Art Centre (COYAC) in Cameroon, Africa.
We have youths who have a lot in the art to share with the people of Poland and the international community as a whole. They are into drawing, painting, local serigraphy and printmaking, Traditional dance and choreography, story telling etc. l know the have a lot to share in the Art and peace building initiative since most of them have experienced issues like inter tribal conflicts, broken homes, some have lived on the street, These youths will use the art forms to share won peace building.
We have never had such opportunity because we come from the marginalise english speaking reagion of Cameroon
l will wish to ask what do we need to do to be eligible or have the opportunity to participate in this once in a lifetime project.
We have missed opportunities due to lack of finance for transportation, visa,accomodation and feeding and l pray that by God's grace this should be a stepping stone to empower these children and strengthen youths in arts

We will wish to know what it takes to be part of this event even if it means by sending only two or three of the kids and either two staff to accompany them. We want their voices heard also in Arts and Peace building.

Please let me know if it can be possible so that l can break the news to them and you give me the modalities. You know they don't have passports yet and we will need to know as fast as possible so that we make start to ask for funds around to make them passports which could take us close to 4 months to get one.

Cindy l will be anxiously waiting to read from you regarding this.
Best Regards
