Fun-eriffic-tantastic
Funeriffic is an online Caribbean community for children with learning differences, with special focus on autism and Down Syndrome. Our goal is to make creative, supportive, and meaningful experiences feel more accessible to children, families, and communities.
Who We Are
Inventions and Creativity through the Arts (ICTA) is a registered non-governmental, non-profit organisation established to promote concepts in teaching and learning through art.
Founded in 2004, ICTA is multidisciplinary, with expertise in education, visual and performing arts, science, and business. The organisation acts as a resource and knowledge-based institution that supports integrated and sustainable approaches to learning through art in schools, communities, and institutions.
We believe in holistic and enjoyable experiences in art education and art for therapy. Our work is designed to encourage awareness, inclusion, hope, multicultural appreciation, and the preservation of Trinidad and Tobago culture.
Through creative and healing-based sessions, we support children with learning differences, individuals with autism, geriatric care, and wider communities in meaningful and accessible ways.
Programme Objectives
To create safe and secure environments where art and therapeutic activities can support healing, comfort, and emotional wellbeing.
To encourage memory, dexterity, alertness, and creative engagement through activities that feel enjoyable and meaningful.
To give young persons with autism or Down Syndrome a more holistic approach to learning through art and the opportunity to express and showcase their work.
To make supportive programmes more available to families and communities across the Caribbean in accessible ways.
