Where Stories Shape Art: A Creative Experience at Miftah An-Nur

04/23/2024

On April 23rd, 2024, The Honey BN brought a burst of creativity and imagination to Miftah An-Nur Islamic International School with a captivating storytelling and character design event. The day was brimming with excitement as children delved into the magical world of 'The Unwormly Wish,' a story crafted by local author (Tina Afiqah) and illustrators (Wafi Aji and Hidayah Azhar). Following the enchanting narrative, they explored the art of character design, vividly bringing their own imaginative ideas to life through unique and colorful creations.


Character Design

Our event was a creative journey designed to nurture young imaginations. Participants explored various art activities, gradually enhancing their skills as they learned to create unique characters using simple shapes. Each child was guided in transforming these shapes into characters that reflected their interests and imagination. To commemorate their creativity, their artwork was compiled into a beautifully crafted book, showcasing their artistic progress and personal creations.

Storytelling Adventure
The Honey was honored to host a captivating storytelling session of The Unwormly Wish, led by Sallyhani, the founder of Honey Bookstore. Sally brought the story to life, engaging students with her vibrant narration. The children were fully immersed, eagerly participating and interacting throughout the session. Their excitement soared as they vied for the shining prizes generously provided by The Honey, adding an extra layer of fun and motivation to the adventure!
