With Wonder
Earlier this month, our team had the absolute pleasure of spending time with Michelle and Eilidh from Breathing Space, learning how creativity can be a powerful pathway to connection and wellbeing.
Through their With Wonder Gifting Programme, we’ve been gifted a collection of beautifully designed art boxes to use with the young people we support through Journey Back to Awesome. Each box is inspired by a New Zealand artist and comes packed with everything needed to get creative… no artistic skills required!
What we love most is that it’s not really about creating a “perfect” piece of art. It’s about slowing down, exploring, having a go, expressing yourself and discovering what happens when you give yourself permission to simply play and create.
A huge thank you to the wonderful Breathing Space team for sharing your knowledge, passion and creativity with us. And thank you to Ember Innovations and the Auckland Regional Council Thriving Communities Grant for helping make this opportunity possible.
We can’t wait to share With Wonder with our young people and see where their imaginations take them.
