Meet Another One of Our New Artists

     Last week we highlighted the importance of celebrating Autism Awareness Month and being sure all individuals effected by Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are fully active and incorporated in our communities.  We hope that you will take this opportunity to help make a difference in the lives of your friends, family, clients, or colleagues who are effected by ASD.  This week we would like to introduce you to Mazen Abdeldayem, another one of our many artists who have recently become a special part of our program. 

     Mazen started coming to We Care Arts in 2016 and we quickly learned that he loves the ladies! Our art teacher Jessie is a particular favorite (of course, she is young and cute!), but he has many friends here. Mazen acts as through he is shy, but he really likes to hang out with our Wednesday afternoon group, which includes some of his special lady friends. He sometimes comes for lunch and they all share food and fellowship. Mazen is very funny and likes to tease the people here at We Care Arts. He is very happy when he comes here and says that he enjoys working with all our teachers.

    

 Mazen was born in Egypt and his family moved here in 2016. He attended school in Egypt, finishing high school where he enjoyed all his subjects. He is continually working on his English language skills, and everyone here is happy to help him learn new words.  He generally paints when he is here and he is always eager and willing to do his art. . He likes color, with silver being his favorite. 
     We all enjoy interacting with Mazen and he has brought a lovely energy into our studio. His ready smile and his friendliness toward all our artists has really put some spark into Wednesday afternoons!
