Project HOPE Art is kicking off 2013 with teacher training workshops at Haiti Communitere’s new Project HOPE Art Center on January 5th the workshop will be repeated again at Sakala on January 6th.

The workshops will focus on both Art and Science.  In the morning, local teachers will have the opportunity to experiment with art materials and learn techniques that they can use in their classrooms.  The afternoons will focus on sustainable agriculture and nutrition for children.  The workshop will also give a hands-on training about the benefits of the Moringa Tree; teachers will learn how to make both Sub-Irrigated Planters (SIP’s) and Moringa smoothies.

Project HOPE Art is making these trainings free for Haitian teachers and educators. Lunch, taptap fare and a tour of the projects at Haiti Communitere and Sakala are included in the workshop program. All participants will receive a teacher resource kit with instructions, information and materials to recreate projects with their students.
