Teatru Salesjan’s educational programme Nurture Culture has been going strong despite the ongoing pandemic. Every few months, a new initiative offers important experiences for children, young people and adults interested in the arts.
With renovations happening in our space at our Sliema home, our efforts are strong as ever to keep the arts alive. Through the lifeline offered by the ongoing support of the ADRC Trust and the BOV Joseph Calleja Foundation, we continue to facilitate first-class training opportunities for diverse people to engage in practice and in performance and to experience quality training from Malta’s top professionals in the field.
Teatru Salesjan has been closed since the pandemic hit the island but three passionate and hard-working women have since been busy thinking about new ways to engage with the community. They tell
Stephanie Fsadni about current and upcoming projects, while sharing their love for the Sliema theatre.
Having been a part of the Salesian community since her childhood, Julienne Schembri was struck by the energy, happiness and connection which surrounded the
Teatru Salesjan (Salesian Theatre). The dance and movement creative thus started to explore how she could build a relationship with this community and was eventually asked to help out as community coordinator. She feels very lucky to have been given this opportunity.
