Art Lesson in Prasot Village

8/27/2014

On August 21st we had an art day in Prasot Village, Svay Rieng Province in rural Cambodia.

We taught two sessions with children ranging between 5 and 15 years old, most of whom had never held a crayon before.

We had a great time and the children made some gorgeous drawings!

We toured Kampot over the last few days and were very impressed by the arts community here!

Two of the most inspiring organizations we came across were Lightbox Gallery and Art Space and Epic Arts.

Current Lightbox exhibition

Great food and great staff at Epic Arts Cafe!

"Established in 2006, the idea for the Epic Arts Café grew from a desire to provide work opportunities for deaf and disabled people as well as a hang-out for deaf students.

Today, the Cafe stands as a model for an inclusive working environment within the local community, providing employment for ten people and raising funds for the work of Epic Arts."

Lightbox Gallery & Art Space

"lightbox is an emerging collaborative art space and social enterprise in the heart of Kampot, Cambodia. The creative space hosts exhibitions, creative workshops, artists in residence, screenings and performance.

lightbox is proud to work in partnership with Kampot Traditional Music School and Mayibuye Cambodia."
