Small Changes Mini Grants Projects: Impact and Wrap up
A young jordanian man who participated in a dance workshop for the first time in his life told the artists: “In the society where I am, until now, dance and art are absolutely nothing, and this is the reason that made me join this workshop. This was my first experience and frankly it is amazing”. How did the Jordanian artists implement their project and changed the lives of the participants? In this video we show you Sarah Nowar, Tales of Jordan, Art Vision and Ahmad Shehadeh’s work processes. Check it out!
