This session was the least successful for me to date, when i came in first the guys were having a committee meeting trying to establish their goals and objectives for the rest of the year, it was great to hear some of these youths were so motivated and dedicated to the work they do as a group through the center, there is an obvious want there for accomplishment, success, progressive learning and moving forward. Absolutely great to see.
The only thing about this was that the group focus was dwelling on other things- and in my opinion more important issues. So i struggled to hold the attention of few this week, but although i struggled for the attention of the group it was good to see that their minds were focused on other positive aspects of group work and motivation. I did do some work with the few that stayed with me, just helping further develop their 'tags', getting them to practice and practice because as hard as it is to draw on paper, its 10 times harder to spray on a wall.
Also we have a possible piece site and a practice wall, the gable end of the center itself and the long wall up to the center.
So overall this week was kind of a standstill as far as the graffiti project goes but at least the work ethic was concentrated on other positive things, hopefully things will get back to normal next week...
Keep ya posted,
Ste
