Menggambar Bersama di Kampung Savana

Abstract

Kampung Savana is one of the slum settlements in Makassar. This can be seen from the poor infrastructure, very minimal residential facilities, the physical condition of the houses which is far from good and the relatively low income of the residents. Just like other slum settlements, one of the problems in Savana Vilage is education.

Many children in Savana Village do not go to school. This is of course a problem because the chain of poverty can only be broken with proper education. This service offers community drawing activity program aimed at young children in Savana Village. This is considered important, because at an early age, children are in the golden period of brain development. To develop the brain optimally, stimulation using artistic activities is really needed. Art activities, such as drawing, can increase children's imagination and creativity, which are very important for their future.

This community drawing activity was able to spark the interest of the children in Savana Village, as seen from their enthusiasm in participating in this activity and the results of their work which they were able to complete well. Their interest can also be seen from their learning activities with the social community after this activity is finished, where they sometimes ask for drawing activities in between studying other things.
