About this Event
The world always seems brighter when you’ve just made something that wasn’t there before.
– Neil Gaiman
Thanks to popular demand, ArtShift is returning to LEVEL 5 to deliver a new and exciting style of professional learning for visual arts educators in the MENA region and beyond. With a focus on creation, we will leverage the talent of local artists, participants and other professionals to provide hands-on, studio-style learning that is directly applicable to a range of contexts.
This year, we will be hosting this workshop virtually over an entire Saturday. Artists will host live studio sessions and provide a material list in advance so you can complete the pieces from the comfort of your own home or school. We encourage all that register to share their ideas in one of three session types – see “Sharing Format” section below.
Who is it for?
- Visual arts educators (painting, sculpture, digital, etc.)
- Artists interested in connecting with and learning with arts educators
- Anyone else interested in learning and collaborating with arts educators
What will you do?
- Collaborate and learn from other arts educators and artists
- Enjoy short, focused workshops on practical applications in the arts
- Share and explore pedagogy and practices with other arts educators
What will you walk away with?
- Relationships with arts educators and artists in the region
- Practical learning experiences you can take back to your classroom
- New resources applicable to your classroom
- Hands-on experiences to try within your classroom
Sharing Format
