Let's help pay for classes in a ceramics workshop for people with severe disabilities

Perspektivi

Foundation • St. Petersburg

Nastya is a cheerful woman and does not like to sit idle. She is especially interested in clay modeling. For over 5 years, she has been attending classes at the ceramics workshop that Perspektivy opened in the psychoneurological boarding house in Peterhof. Here, people with severe disabilities can work, create and improve their skills. Over the years, the workshop has become a center of attraction for Nastya and other wards. Classes are held 4 times a week and the students look forward to each meeting. At first, it was not easy for Nastya: the clay stained her hands, ruined her favorite manicure, and rolling out the layer seemed an impossible task. She created her first products with the help of a teacher, working "hand in hand". But thanks to perseverance, support, and regular practice, her motor skills improved significantly, and she developed confidence and a feel for the material. Now, Nastya can create a piece almost independently, carefully following every step of the process. She takes great pride in her work and is thrilled when others appreciate her creations. Your donations will help cover the salary of the workshop teacher. Let’s give people with disabilities the freedom to express themselves and the joy of creativity!
