You can’t capture the real beauty of these bags without seeing the hands and hearing the stories behind them. 🤍

Behind every stitch is laughter, patience, skill, and pride.

At Greater Action, skills training is about more than making beautiful products. It’s about creating opportunities for Afghan refugee women to build independence, confidence, and a future through their talents.

Creativity can give forgotten things a new life. ✨

At Greater Action, we brought art and upcycling together.

Our tailoring team creates beautiful pieces every day.

But what happens to the small fabric scraps left behind?

Instead of throwing them away,
we found a new purpose for them.

In our art workshop, participants turned fabric scraps into art.

They mixed colours, textures and creativity on canvas.

Every small piece of fabric became part of something new.

A simple scrap became a beautiful detail.

And every canvas became a unique creation.

This is the beauty of upcycling—
seeing possibilities in what others might throw away.

Giving materials a second life.
Creating art with purpose. 💚

Creativity is not about knowing how to paint. It’s about giving yourself permission to explore, play and discover what appears when you stop trying to get it “right.”

In this workshop, we’ll combine painting with discarded fabrics from Greater Action’s sewing workshop—from small scraps of fabric to loose threads that would normally go to waste. We’ll transform them into texture, movement and beautiful unexpected designs on canvas.

A creative experience where art, self-discovery and sustainability come together. No artistic experience is needed, and all the materials are provided—just bring your curiosity, an open mind, and the willingness to create something uniquely yours.

Enjoy a relaxed, hands-on creative experience, followed by a delicious Afghan lunch.

📅 Monday, 5 October | 10:00 AM–1:00 PM
📍 Greater Action Center, Ampang
💰 RM125 per person
