Project Wrap Up 2016 514 食物藝術: 佛卡夏麵包 Food & Art

感謝大家的耐心等待！2016同樣是個行程滿檔的一年，為了構築初夏的各項活動，我們在規劃聯繫上投注了相當多的時間；先是五月在蘭嶼、台東、新竹開辦共四個工作坊，再來就是六月一個浩大的募款盛會。

對於一直以來選擇支持臺灣嚮光協會的朋友們，我的感激之情是難以言喻的，感謝大家支持我們想要成就的任務，並且真正了解我們亟欲推廣的理念。今年，我們再次回到了台東以及蘭嶼，若非如此幸運地有夥伴們的情義相挺，這趟旅程也無法順利成行！

嚮光協會首次踏足東台灣是在2015年11月，作為佳欣冬日慶典的系列活動之一，要在蘭嶼建構一座由回收寶特瓶為基底的聖誕樹；當時受限於時間與經費，唯一開辦給公眾參與的專題課程也僅能容納15-20位小朋友（雖然有將近30位小朋友到場）。

我們期待的是，透過與社群建立友誼以及長期的關係，能夠進一步發展相互的理解與尊重；因此，有幸再次回到東台灣、與當地社群共度優質時光，對我們來說是相當寶貴的。我記取初次的經驗，將之整合到活動設計中，以求更加深入了解當地社群所需以及可供利用的物資。

這一次，我們邀請了梅芳老師帶領蘭嶼鄉的婦女們烘焙製作美味的佛卡夏麵包，地點在棒透了的漂流木餐廳二樓，除了分發食譜與食材，還有SOLIS所提供色彩明亮的圍裙，為活動現場增添一絲嶄新、歡樂的氣氛。

參加「食物藝術：佛卡夏麵包」的婦女們大概是我們所見過最為專注的一群學生了！在等麵糰發的時候，我們希望這場美食饗宴能夠進一步與藝術結合，因此還準備了水性色鉛筆，讓大家透過畫畫，分享彼此平日的早餐內容，也幫助我們了解蘭嶼當地的資源，未來能更善加利用原生食材。藉由這個機會，我們也詢問了大家以後想要參與哪一類型的課程。

非常感激各位的支持，讓我們得以深耕東台灣；前往台東和蘭嶼對我們來說是相當遙遠的路程，而運送物資到蘭嶼更是讓我們傷透了腦筋，一次專題課程涉及了大大小小約五百件物品，其中還包括兩座烤箱。提供的所有食物都是純素，也就是不含任何動物副產品。臺灣嚮光協會並響應蘭嶼「多背一公斤」活動（一人一公斤，把垃圾帶離蘭嶼）；工作坊所使用的大部份材料是取自蘭嶼島上，像是紙箱之類的，而我們的團隊在向蘭嶼說再見時，除了將所有的物品帶回，也將垃圾帶離並妥善回收；從台北出發之前，我們也再三告誡、嚴禁攜帶使用塑膠瓶罐。

如果各位願意慷慨解囊，資助臺灣嚮光協會的東台灣秋季工作坊，請參考以下捐款帳戶資訊；捐款的朋友們也請寄封電子郵件（主旨：2016 FW TAITUNG）通知金額總數，以便我們將款項保留給東台灣活動專用。目前，募款的目標為新台幣九萬元（美金三千元）。

Thank you for all your patience! It’s been a packed 2016 in building up to our early summer activities. It takes several weeks and countless contacts to make each workshop possible; we hosted four in May in Orchid Island, Taitung, and Hsinchu and then moved onto a huge fundraiser in June.

It’s very difficult to express how grateful I am to those who choose to support Bright Side Projects and what we do – and truly understand what we are about. This time heading back to Taitung and Orchid Island for the second time, we were so fortunate to have enough people support us or else this journey would not have been possible!

Our first trip over was in November 2015 thanks to Santa Jia-Xin and supporters. The main project then was to construct a Christmas Tree from the recycled plastic bottles on the island. At that time due to time and budget constraints, the only workshop were able to host open to the public were was still limited to 15-20 kids (although close to 30 showed up).

We want to build friendships and have long term relationships in communities so that there is a mutual understanding and respect. Being able to go back this time and spend time with the community, was invaluable. I took what I heard the first time into incorporating activities that would give us better understanding of what the locals want and what was available locally.

This time we invited Teacher Mei just for this project to make delicious focaccia bread with the women. Hosted at on the second floor of the stunning 漂流木餐廳recipes were handed out and ingredients distributed. SOLIS provided us with some festive colored aprons that brought an even happier and brighter dimension to our workshops.

The women that joined our 食物藝術: 佛卡夏麵包 Food & Art were probably some of the most dedicated students we’ve ever had in our events! While the focaccia dough was rising, we had watercolor pencils provided so that we could incorporate art and everyone could draw and share what resources Orchid Island had and also what they normally ate for breakfast. Hopefully in the future we will be able to utilize more of Orchid Island’s native ingredients. We asked them to let us know what type of courses they would like to join in the future.

Taitung and Orchid Island is a trek for us and we appreciate the support from everyone while we set up regular workshops and a presence there for the long haul. The logistics of bringing everything over itemized to around 500 pieces big and small, including shipping two ovens, was no easy task. All foodstuffs are vegan with no animal byproducts. Bright Side Projects supports the 1KG Campaign (減蘭嶼垃圾量生宣導多帶走1KG垃 )

and the majority of the workshop materials we sourced on the island, such as the cardboard boxes. Our team brought back all items and our trash to Taitung and Taipei to properly recycle. Before departing Taipei Bright Side Projects does not permit plastic bottles to be brought on our journey over.

If you would like to donate to fund our fall trip back to Taitung and Orchid Island, please find the bank info below. Email us with the subject “2016 FW TAITUNG” and the amount of your donation so we put this on reserve for this specific project. We are looking to raise $100,000 NT / ~$3,100 USD.
