ART COMMUNITY, 2021-2022

The Art Community at AUCA provides students with the opportunity to meet twice a month, immerse themselves in the world of art, and take a break from their studies. Students engage in creative activities, make new friends, interact, and explore various forms of art, all while relaxing and enjoying the artistic sessions. The Art Community Club is a space where students can freely express their full creative potential without any boundaries or judgments.

Some of the events organized in the spring of 2022 include grattage, contour embroidery, painting, string art, origami, doodle drawing, and much more!

The leaders of the art club are Aisha and Saltanat.

Leaders of the Art Club: Djamila and Ainazyk, 2021-2022

In our club, "Art with Heart," we use art therapy techniques to relax and gain a deeper understanding of one's own personality. Through working with metaphorical cards, crafts, and drawing, club members gain a better understanding of their inner fears, resources, and self-image. Moreover, we help them boost their self-esteem and develop a more accurate perception of their own image.
