Lets make a community arts project
Community projects are a fantastic way for people to come together. To imagine, build, create and celebrate.
Some of the many reasons for holding a community arts project are:
- People can tell stories through many different art mediums
 - New skills can be learnt
 - Skills can be transferred from one person to another
 - New friendships can be made
 - Gives participants sense of ownership and achievement
 
Sean Manners has facilitated many different community projects. From building Pizza ovens to co-ordinating parades. Building interactive large puppets for special occasions such as Australia Day to mosaics for Neighbourhood Houses. Teaching how to create colourful banners that tell a story to literacy projects.
Why create a community arts project?
Arts, health and wellbeing have proven to be good partners. Engagement in creative activities as part of a community can do the following:
- Stimulates well being,
 - Sense of belonging
 - Quiet achievement
 - Support and encouragement of others
 - Skills transfer to the community and between the community
 - Safe environment to explore creativity
 - Gives community ownership to a project
 - Tells a story
