As expected, children, parents and volunteers were impressed and inspired by the Spirit of Glass Studio in Selby and had a great time of experimenting fused glass technique. Not to mention the fun we had with the cute chocks!
JCI Eastern presents the Art2Heart program. Our aim was to provide a safe environment for self exploration and growth through arts. With the help of volunteers and artists, invited primary school kids were given the opportunity to learn from established artists and experience arts in various forms. This has been a special journal and we invite you to join us!

Workshop 4: Jewellery Glass Art with Kirsten and Garey Laken
Once again, the Art2Heart Program returned to Spirit of Glass on Saturday 31 August to learn from the awarding-winning glass artist, Kirsten Laken and Garey Laken (also an accomplished artist) about jewellery making with glass. This workshop featured a different application of glass art, which is very different from the leadlight glass art workshop we had the previous week with Phillip Wright.
As expected, children, parents and volunteers were impressed and inspired by the Spirit of Glass Studio in Selby and had a great time of experimenting fused glass technique. Not to mention the fun we had with the cute chocks!

Workshop 3: Leadlight Glass Art with Phillip Wright
The leadlight glass art workshop that we had with Phillip Wright on Saturday 24 August was fantastic. Children from the Art2Heart Program not only had the chance putting together a sun catcher (apparently "bird sun catcher" was the most popular choice on the day), they also learned first hand about how to work with glass safely. We sincerely thank Phillip from The Oak Glass for his time and superb organisational skills with running an intricate workshop like this one.
Special thank-you also goes to our volunteers, Alan and Lorraine, for assisting the workshop on the day.
