Boost Your Creativity at Tuscany at McKinley Hill’s Summer Art Sessions
By Mommy Donna and Kib - April 15, 2015
Creativity is one of the skills that I believe is innate to
each and every person. It just needs to
be tapped by engaging in some activities and brain exercises that will awaken
the creative part of our brain.
When I was in graduate school, one of the subjects that I
took was Creative Teaching Techniques.
My professor in this course really challenged all of us to be really
creative in terms of submitting projects and doing teaching demonstrations and
reports. He won’t accept so-so
presentations; it should be unique and well-thought of. I’m glad that our professor really
emphasized the value of creativity in everything we do.
Now that I have a son, I also wanted my son to have high
creative thinking ability. I do not stop
him for doing things inside the house as long as his imagination and creativity
is concerned. He likes drawing different
characters, creating stories, building communities, and even doing role
play.
I’m so glad to learn that this summer, Megaworld LifestyleMalls will be coming up with a series of workshops, inviting all aspiring
artists, hobbyists, and art enthusiasts in the Metro and nearby areas. Entitled ‘Summer Art Sessions’, the series of
weekend arts and crafts workshop series will be held in Tuscany at McKinley
Hills, which will commence on April 19th, 2015 until May 10th,
2015, from 1PM-5PM. The workshops will
be held in various restaurants along the dining strip of Tuscany.
This event is organized together with Manila Workshops (the
company that I also work with).
I feel blessed to be chosen to be part of the media launch
of this event last April 13, 2015 held at Marciano’s in Tuscany. During the media launch, we were given an
opportunity to have an experience on what to expect during the summer workshops
on April 19th.
Check out our photos during the media launch below:
