Kylemore: Imbali Visual Literacy Project
Title
Kylemore: Imbali Visual Literacy Project
Subject
Children's Art
Description
The Imbali Visual Literacy Project (VLP), with the generous outreach program from Alexis Hanslo and The Children’s Art Centre, took root in Kylemore in 2001 and today has 100 children on a once-a-month art workshop program.
This project addresses the need to provide a structured and meaningful program that enhances the visual literacy education of the children in Kylemore. It is our conviction that constructive, structured and creative intervention (especially in the form of art workshops) leads to a renewed interest in learning, as well as to a radical development in self-esteem, that may change the course of young lives which are currently at serious risk.
