ART IN EARLY CHILDHOOD 2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
5-8 February, 2007 - Armidale, NSW, Australia
"Our People, Our Place, Our Time"
The University of New England and the conference committee extends a very warm welcome to all with an interest in Early Childhood and the Arts, to take part in the 2nd International Art in Early Childhood Conference.
This conference celebrates art in early childhood in and across international social, cultural and historical contexts, Our People, Our Place, Our Time. The goal of the conference is to bring together art and early childhood/primary educators, researchers, and practitioners into an expanding and increasingly interdisciplinary discussion about early childhood and art. We will identify emerging directions in understanding how young children experience art and how they create and communicate their ideas and experiences visually and through the arts.
