Iyada oo loo marayo Workshops, Arts, Expeditions, and Institute Certificates program, Guusha Mashruucu waxa ay caawisaa ardayda in ay ku xidhaan ujeedadooda. Tabarucayaasheena ayaa siyaabo kala duwan u taageera barnaamijyadeena. Dhammaan mutadawiciinta sida tooska ah ula shaqeysa ardayda waxaa looga baahan yahay inay dhammaystiraan wareysiga baaritaanka oo ay ku gudbaan baaritaanka asalka.

Guusha Mashruucu waxa ay la kaashataa in ka badan 50 Twin Cities tiyaatar wada-hawlgalayaasha kuwaas oo si deeqsinimo leh ugu deeqa tigidhada oo nagu caawiya iskudubarid khibradaha masraxa ee ardayda, qoysaska, iyo macalimiinta. Kuwaas Waayaha Masraxa waxaa lagu bixiyaa lacag la'aan ardayda iyo qoysaskooda, iyadoo adeegyada gaadiidka la heli karo si loo hubiyo in qof walba uu iman karo. Wadayaashayada iskaa wax u qabso ah ayaa door muhiim ah ka ciyaara kordhinta helitaanka fursadahan cajiibka ah ee masraxyada. Dareewal iskaa wax u qabso ahaan, waxaad marka hore u soo qaadanaysaa ardayda iyo qoysaskooda waayo-aragnimada Masraxa. Tabarucayaashu waxay isticmaalaan gaadiidkooda si ay ardayda iyo qoysaska uga soo qaadaan guryahooda oo ay geeyaan mid ka mid ah wada-hawlgalayaasha tiyaatarada ee Magaalooyinka Mataanaha ah. Waxaan ku dhiirigelinaynaa mutadawiciinta inay la shaqeeyaan ardayda iyo qoysaska baabuurka, inta lagu jiro kala-goynta, iyo raacitaanka guriga. Tani kaliya ma hubiso in ardaydu helaan gaadiid laakiin sidoo kale waxay dhistaa dareenka bulshada ee u dhexeeya tabaruceyaasha iyo qoysaska iyadoo la wadaagaya farxada masraxa tooska ah.

Darawalada iskaa wax u qabso ah waxay helaan sahan bil kasta leh liiska dhacdooyinka masraxa ee soo socda, badanaa inta u dhaxaysa 10 iyo 25 bandhig. Darawaliintu waxay leeyihiin dabacsanaan ay ku doortaan dhacdooyin badan ama tiro yar oo ay diyaar u yihiin inay kaxeeyaan bil kasta. Marka loo qoondeeyo wadista, tabaruceyaasha waxay helayaan tilmaamo faahfaahsan oo ku saabsan sida loola xiriiro qoysaska oo ay uga qaybgalaan bandhigga (dabcanna shaqaalahayagu waxay mar walba diyaar u yihiin inay taageeraan! Darawaliintu waxay doortaan go'aankooda waqti, waxayna si bilaash ah ugu raaxaystaan masraxa heerka sare ah! Marka laga soo tago waayo-aragnimada Masraxa, waxaa jiri kara fursado kale oo lagu kaxeeyo Guusha Mashruuca, sida fasallada Shahaadooyinka Machadka iyo barnaamijyada ka baxsan dugsiga.

Shuruudaha: Darawalada waxaa looga baahan yahay inay ku aflaxaan baaritaanka asalka, dhammaystiraan wareysiga baaritaanka, waana inay haystaan shatiga darawalnimada iyo caymiska baabuurta.
