Intercultural meeting - Art as a privilege to express ourselves

Submitted by Dessi on Tue, 06/22/2021 - 12:05

Art is the privilege of expressing ourselves and our thoughts. It gives us a chance to explore corners of our souls that we sometimes may not even know exist. It teaches us to take risks and be open to the vast possibilities of the world.

Art has been shown to increase attention, focus and develop coordination. And at the last intercultural meeting between women third-country nationals, and representatives of the Bulgarian community, we managed to prove that art is the unifying element between all of us, which knows no boundaries and barriers.

The event was held under the direction of Mara Lateva - Bulgarian artist. The activity is part of the project "Comprehensive integration support for legally residing third-country nationals", which is implemented jointly with the team of Caritas Sofia. It includes a variety of activities to improve access to social and health services, education, employment and integration into society.
