Met with the Dee a potential designer for the Children's Art publication this morning. The good news is the price seems right - it only remains to haggle over distribution and print runs later.I am sure the Get Ahead Club will be pleased with the product. Rita's 'Share the Wealth' attitude really underpins the project, I hope it can at least go to each class and each After Schools group in North Clondalkin (will worry about the wider county later) in sufficient quantities to be a useful tool. In addition to the existing art activities it seems likely that we will add in sections on the 'colour wheel' and using digital technology to explore creativity - digital camera & video, computer & printer.
Suburb's and the Small World: It turns out that Dee plays with the Samba School in Tallaght - which i have had the great pleasure of teaching some funky grooves to in the past. They have a DVD of me playing a 64 bar tambourim solo - which they study! Tee hee You guys rock!!
Sambistas and art projects love technology - and intercultural exchange!
West Dublin heart Brazil
Speaking of sambistas.... I must make enquiries about the Clondalkin Youth Samba School.
