The Glasshouse Engagement Sessions
tailored specifically for our beneficiary children and youths from lower socioeconomic backgrounds
CMAS will provide sponsored access into The Glasshouse and its contents for groups of children and youths from lower socioeconomic backgrounds cared for by our community partners.
Forming a basis and delivered through different series of 12 weekly The Glasshouse Engagement Sessions, our digital contents from within The Glasshouse provides opportunity for building literacy through story-telling, as well as creativity and self-expression through hands-on engagement with music and arts activities. Tailored specifically for our beneficiary children and youths, these sessions are led by our experienced animateurs and children’s theatre artists.
Each Engagement Session offers time for building musical knowledge, digital story-telling, hands-on music and arts activities, as well as sharing and reflection – through a focus on a variety of great creative masters.
