Art of inclusion


Art…Who doesn’t love art? Nowadays it’s everywhere, and it is impossible to imagine our lives without it. Everything is art and art is for everyone.











But have you ever thought what is actually art and how powerful it can be? It’s well-known that art connects people, countries, cultures. Have you ever thought that art can heal people, and helps those in need, those with difficulties, those who actually can learn this world only through arts?
That was what our last project about. Art of inclusion. The project gathered partner-organizations from Portugal, Germany, Romania, and Italy. The week was full of cultural events and activities. The program consisted of: painting sessions, visits to the museums, creating photo exhibition, handcraft activities etc.





It was unbelievably enjoyable to watch how everyone was deeply involved in the process. One more time I was convinced that art is full of love,  feelings, when people create (literally anyone),  they get lost and adore the process. And it is amazing. When everyone is free to fly in imagination, free to create.





Art is freedom. Art is feelings. Art is love. Art is inclusion.!

Fare volontariato presso l'Associazione Uniamoci Onlus

Le nostre volontarie Ucraine hanno finito il loro periodo di volontariato in associazione lo scorso Agosto. Abbiamo un pò riflettuto sulla loro esperienza con noi, sul contributo che hanno dato alla nostra associazione e ai nostri utenti ma anche su ciò che hanno avuto modo di imparare in questi 10 mesi. Ecco un pieghevole che riassume il valore di Help and Empower Yourself:

Maryna, con noi da quasi due settimane ormai!

Un pò di ansia per il visto che non voleva arrivare e allora non volevamo neanche creare false speranze tra i membri dell'Associazione, così abbiamo parlato poco di lei e solo una settimana prima del suo arrivo. Con entusiasmo abbiamo trascorso due mattinate a preparare un cartellone di benvenuto e l'abbiamo aspettata, preparando ciascuno la sua presentazione in inglese: qualcuno ancora chiedeva "ma quanto resta?""10 mesi""Miiiii".  Eravamo così quel primo giorno: Adesso sono passate quasi due settimane in cui Maryna si è perfettamente integrata col nostro gruppo e da questa settimana inizierà anche a gestire delle attività: in questo momento sta tenendo una lezione di Ucraino per i nostri utenti e volontari e venerdì sperimenteremo una tecnica pittorica ucraina, perchè Maryna è un'artista! Ma ci ha molto aiutato anche nel lavoro d'ufficio, compilando e sistemando tabelle, aggiornando il blog del nostro progetto Art of Inclusion, h...

Busy days, the best moments

The last month in   the organization was quite busy and crowded. So,    firstly together with guys we prepared a lot of handcraft    souvenirs    for the Christmas market. It was a special project, because   all of the souvenirs were made of recycled materials, and I enjoyed myself during those creative workshops. Not less enjoying was the Youth Exchange. It was the first time for me to participate in the project like this and I found it truly exciting. The week of very well-planned activities passed quickly, I learned a lot about the topic (Hi-Tech Youth Work),   I met a lot of new people coming from Latvia, Malta and Spain. But what is more important, I made good friends with the best guys, we had so much fun together, I can’t remember when I laughed so much the last time! It was an incredible week! The final event was the staff party, the best ending of the year before Christmas holidays. The first thing I was surpr...
