Young artists are encouraged to explore their expressive side and cultivate their imagination, fostering self-awareness.

Following Social-Emotional Learning practices, this creative activity delves into the landscapes of dreams, helping enhance an understanding of aspirations and contributing to emotional intelligence.

Final art pieces will be shared online, and the community will vote on select prizes, including the most creative use of color, best composition, crowd favorite, and more!
