Shamiri Pre-Texts Facilitators are recent high-school graduates trained to deliver Pre-Texts, an innovative art-literacy intervention without prior formal training. This unique approach uses text – an extract from a novel, a physics lesson, or a technical manual – as a source of inspiration for making art. This is followed by group reflection on the process of interpretation through art-making. We are seeking self-motivated individuals to join this class of Pre-Texts Facilitators.
