Positive Collages

Today the girls worked on positive collages for themselves. They found positive inspiring quotes to add to their decorated canvases. We have been focusing on perception and what we think of ourselves. The girls also made a get well soon painting for Sara.

Screen Printing

The girls found stencils they liked online and screen printed them on teeshirts, aprons, and fabric samples. They were very excited to create clothes that only they will have and that show their unique personalities.

Girls+Design: Products of Change

As described in our previous post, LunaTech partnered with Youth In Arts to participate in a pilot program of Girls+Design.  Below are several of the projects worked on and completed throughout the Girls+Design program.

In the video above, LunaTech had fun drawing and making shrinky dink tags and charms to put on the canvas bags they would later decorate.

In the video above, the girls were asked "What is important to you?  What do you value most?"  Then, led in an exercise by Suzanne, the girls transformed their values into unique, individual patterns.

In the video above, the girls are taking transferring their patterns onto canvas bags.  These bags were further decorated by the girls to include their personal stories.  Suzanne collected the completed bags and brought them to a group of girls in Africa.

In the video above, the girls introduce themselves and share what's important to them.  This video was created to go along with the canvas bags to the girls in Africa.
