I first came across KickStart Art program in 2012 and was immediately impressed by it's ethos and goals. It's a grassroots program that provides art teaching and art therapy for around 1200 Burmese migrant kids living on the Thai/Myanmar border. My Dad was an artist and art teacher so I think it could be why I find this program so inspiring. For more information about this wonderful program go to https://www.kickstartart.org/

.I am going to cycle over 2000 kilometres around Myanmar in November 2018, aiming to raise as much money and awareness for the KickStart Art Program. I will be starting and finishing in the Thai border town of Mae Sot where KickStart Art is based.
