Arts for Education!: Save the date

Who is responsible for arts education? Where is there a need for action at the level of politics and society? How are children and young people involved? We cordially invite you to shape the future of arts education at the international Arts for Education! symposium that will be taking place in Essen from 13 to 15 September 2010.

The aim of the symposium is to promote exchange between and networks of international actors in the area of arts education on an academic, practical and political level. Arts for Education! generates public awareness for the topic of arts education, thus showcasing the great social importance of education and cultural work aimed at encouraging the creative independence of children and young people.

Anne Bamford, Paul Collard, Max Fuchs, Danuta Glondys, Eckart Liebau and Michael Wimmer are just some of the speakers who have already agreed to participate.

We look forward to welcoming you to Arts for Education! in Essen.
