Spearheaded by seasoned educator Patricia Amorim Da Silva, renowned for her expertise in photography and art, this 5-week program is designed to empower individuals with disabilities through the creative arts.
The Power of Art
The Empowering Through Art program is dedicated to creating an inclusive and supportive environment where participants can freely explore their artistic talents.
Through various engaging activities and exercises, ranging from painting to photography, the program aims to unlock the unique creative potential within each individual.
Art has long been recognised as a powerful medium for personal expression and self-discovery.
By harnessing the therapeutic benefits of artistic expression, this program seeks to boost participants’ self-esteem, nurture their confidence, and foster a sense of belonging within a supportive community.


Creativity meets Collaboration
As the program kicks off, participants eagerly anticipate the upcoming group project, where they can collaborate and create together.
This promotes teamwork and cooperation and celebrates each individual’s diverse talents and perspectives.
MercyCare is committed to providing meaningful opportunities for personal growth and empowerment for individuals with disabilities.


Through initiatives like the Empowering through Art Program, we strive to create a more inclusive and vibrant community where everyone has the chance to thrive.
We eagerly anticipate the continuation of this enriching journey and look forward to witnessing the impact of art on the lives of our participants.
