YPAA Arts Education Day 16 July @ Sydney Opera House
YOUNG PEOPLE AND THE ARTS AUSTRALIA (YPAA) – ARTS EDUCATION DAY
SPEAKING IN TONGUES – HOW DO WE TRANSLATE THE ARTS IN EDUCATION, AND EDUCATION IN THE ARTS?
Young People and the Arts Australia (YPAA) is the national peak body for organisations and practitioners engaging children and young people in the arts. Our Arts Education Day, Speaking in Tongues, will challenge participants to rethink the way the arts and education relate to each other.
The day consists of inspiring keynotes, facilitated sessions, question and answer time and access to key decision makers. Given the expansion of the arts in the National Curriculum, it will be an event for educators to learn more about the language of the arts, and artists the language of educators. It will model inspired practice and form for the arts and education, and engage participants in critical debate on the future arts ecology of this country, with the aim of building a strong voice for sustained arts education outcomes.
Suitable audiences include: specialist and generalist teachers and educators; arts practitioners and organisations that engage or are seeking to engage with the Education sector; principals; curriculum leaders; pre-service teachers; parents; students and anyone who would like to share their opinions about arts in the curriculum.
Monday 16 July, 9am – 5pm
Utzon Room, Sydney Opera House
$110 for registration
