What art practices are involved?
To date cmap volunteers have designed and delivered projects involving film making, photography, folklore, drawing, painting, drama, hat making, fashion, animation and collage amongst other things. All of these varied subjects have proved successful with the children, engaging them in regular activities and also teaching them practical skills. Each art facilitator has brought their own unique approach to the design, delivery and outcomes of each project and cmap is open to accommodate volunteers from a wide variety of arts backgrounds. Normally projects are thematic and are designed to fit into previous project work or act as a continuation of themes already covered. Traditionally two volunteers work on the project at any one time, meaning there is often different approaches to art education that complement each other during the same period.
