The Art of Girl Building
This summer program is designed to empower adolescent girls through hands-on learning in carpentry, textile arts, painting, and social-emotional learning (SEL). The program fosters creativity, teamwork, and personal growth in a supportive and safe environment. The Art of Girl Building offers a dynamic balance of technical skill development and emotional intelligence, ensuring participants leave not only with new abilities but also with a greater sense of confidence, self-awareness, and teamwork.
The primary goal of this program is to help young girls develop practical skills while building their confidence and enhancing interpersonal relationships. Through learning carpentry, textile arts, and painting, participants gain hands-on experience with tools and materials, which fosters problem-solving and critical thinking. The SEL component, woven throughout AoGB, focuses on emotional regulation, communication, leadership, and collaboration. These activities help participants become more self-aware, manage their emotions, and work effectively in teams.
