In January 2022, Funtasia Enterprise partnered with the Diriyah Contemporary Art Biennale in Saudi Arabia to develop and implement 2 week-long Bilingual English/Arabic camps for 80 students aged 4 to 13, built around the main themes of the art exhibition. Led by 6 Senior Funtasia facilitators from Egypt, Italy, Mexico, and the United States, through fun, artistic, hands-on activities and games such as
- Creative characters and storytelling
- Theatre Improv Ages 4-13
- Creative Illustrated Journals
- Land Art
- Finger painting and collage
One of our students expressed,
Funtasia is the best thing in the world!” and “You let me dream and be me, I didn’t know how to do it. Don’t go away” is some of the feedback we got from the FUNtastic participants.
The children strengthened important human skills such as
- Gratitude,
- Creativity,
- Self-expression,
- Self-confidence,
- Self-awareness,
- Imagination.
When surveyed, 97% of participants said they would prefer all of their education to be supplemented with Funtasia's socio-emotional approach.
