Despite having art class as part of their curriculum, many Cambodian elementary and middle schools presently lack the art supplies and trained teachers to conduct such classes.
Rainbow Project activities include holding art workshops to coach Cambodian teachers in teaching methods and conducting painting classes for children. |

Workshops conducted in Cambodia as part of this year's Rainbow Project. Due to a lack of art supplies and teachers, arts and crafts classes had been rarely conducted in Cambodian schools. Under the guidance of instructors from Japan, teachers and students--many whom had never held a paintbrush--attempted to paint pictures and make masks. They had lively expressions on their faces as they immersed themselves in their works.
