"Creative Encounters" Programme (CRE-Prog)

Introduction to Creative Encounters Programme:
“Creative Encounters” is another unique programme for children between the ages seven and fifteen, brought to you by LCYTF. It gives the child the opportunity to learn and enjoy the basic elements of different art forms such as drama, dance, music and painting.
This programme is aimed at enhancing the artistic taste, cheerfulness and playful sense of the child through creative activities and thereby develops his/her abilities and self-esteem. While providing a valuable opportunity to learn basic forms of art, the programme encourages the child to explore human relationships, socio-cultural values and achieve world awareness.

Lanka Children’s and Youth Theatre Foundation (LCYTF):
