เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 23 มี.ค. 2020
Since 1998, S.M.A.R.T. strengthens emotional health through experiential arts education and nurtures students as mindful community leaders.
The Vitamin C's.
We share a glimpse of our journey that is rooted in an organic process of teaching art to primary school students. It has evolved into an experience resulting in a holistic approach to strengthening mental health and empowering emotional decision making. We call it The Vitamin C's, intended to strengthen the child's resilience, nurture the immune system and shape a confident individual all on the foundation of our natural desire to create. We hope you enjoy what we believe, The Vitamin C Video.
