Introduction
Many people lack opportunities to participate in art programs which connect their lives to a bigger group of like minded people. Notably, there are numerous people who are isolated but eager to learn and spend time with art. Art programs, especially short courses, can offer people different ways to actively engage in the creative process.
Therefore, this academy mainly focuses on the short span art projects for underprivileged people who have limited opportunities to enjoy art experiences in their daily life, and the meanings and roles of arts and art educational programs for diverse groups of people.
zaad’s unique approach to arts education measurably improves academic and personal outcomes for children and youth, including those students with Limited Education .
At ZAAD, we teach our students that there are no mistakes in art, only endless possibilities for them to
explore, create, and inspire.
Mission:
Our mission is to engage young people specially females in the creative process in order to shape a society of creative, confident and collaborative individuals.
Vision:
We believe that the arts and creativity are transformational. ZAAD envisions a society that honors the human capacity for creativity, and values its cultivation in the education of young people specially females.
