An environment of equals


No barriers of age , everyone is equal and any age is capable to do things. These are believes I received from my upbringing and believe them to be true. However not always it what really happens in my life, sometimes I get stuck in the conditioning that I am bigger so I know better or can do something better.
This completely got shattered in Craft club.
Craft club is a group of enthusiastic crafters who wish to learn, make products and now we have moved to the stage of selling. We are a mixed age group with youngest is 8 and oldest me 20!

We learned wire art from our mentor – 2 children aged 12 picked up the wire art skill really well, they make beautiful jewelry and other wire stuff and have the technique in hand. They have eye for neatness, colour composition and beauty.


Initially I though I am good at Art and I should be teaching other in the club but this wire art simply turned the tables around, I was learning from them, getting scolding from them for not doing neatly and was asking them for suggestion. Our working environment became of equals – asking each other for comments and suggestions, appreciating each others work and enjoying working together.

Its beautiful to live in a community where I am can and am challenged to live my beliefs and values
