On Sunday, 23 November 2025, SmartWoman unfolded yet another impactful chapter of skill-building and emotional wellbeing through an Art Therapy Session at Transguard Female Accommodation, Jebel Ali.

This vibrant session was beautifully led by Ms. Manasi and her talented team from Adaakari Art Studio, with wholehearted support from our SmartWoman mentor Ms. Namrata, and our dedicated volunteers — Ms. Victoria (also the camp boss of Transguard Jebel Ali), Ms. Satyabati, and Ms. Durriya.

🎨 What made it special?
Thirty-five incredible frontline women immersed themselves in fabric painting, transforming simple cloth into soulful pieces of art.
What unfolded wasn’t just creativity — it was release, reflection, and rediscovery.

✨ Benefits the women carried home:

- A gentle outlet to reduce stress and emotional fatigue
- Improved focus and mindfulness
- A boost in confidence through hands-on creation
- A new artistic skill they can continue to use
- Strengthened community bonding

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this experience meaningful and memorable 💛
