AMES Footscray cartooning: our first cartoons

 In the future I want to help people.

 In the future I would like to have a business that is in many places around the world.

 I the future I would like to be in charge of a company and have a helicopter.


 I would like to go to Victoria University.

 This is a scene of my country, with a waterfall. There are fields where rice is grown and fields of corn.
 My dream is to improve my English.

I am reading a learner permit book, thinking to learn to drive.

At AMES Footscray we did our first session of learning to draw cartoons.  Some cartoons we made are about our lives this week and others are about our hopes and dreams for the future.
We will eventually be making some  pictures to display at Gallery Sunshine Everywhere.

Exquisite Me is an arts project that explores the collective experiences, stories and representations of identities of young people in Sunshine and Brimbank. These experiences, stories and representations will be explored during various art and writing workshops run by  community artist Debbie Qadri. The artwork and writing will be displayed as a large collaborative work, in a number of venues in Sunshine, including Gallery Sunshine Everywhere. Some of the artwork and writing will be published in a zine format and also made into an artist’s book for the Sunshine Library. Workshops will be held at schools, community groups and at Council facilities such as the Sunshine Library . 
Thankyou for your support and involvement -  AMES ( Adult Migrant Education Services), Marian College, Ardeer Primary School, Sunshine College, Sunshine Library and  Gallery Sunshine Everywhere. 


The Exquisite Me Project and Gallery Sunshine Everywhere kindly acknowledges the support of the Brimbank City Council Community Grants Program.
