Supporting Professional Development (PD) for Artists & Teachers
We are a support organization for the collaboration of Artists and Educators to collaborate and innovate “new” or alternative curriculum across cultures & disciplines. We support the research & development of curriculum innovation which promotes diverse intelligence & cultural learning, student agency and creative/artistic contributions!
Our Pillars of ‘Action’
We believe Innovative Education, must embrace ALL Humanity—with direct and proportionate balance to our world’s histories. By serving and supporting the roles of artists and educator’s of ALL cultures we work to enhance human capacity and apply research-based knowledge to curriculum innovation. Our pillars include:
Artistic & Creative Exchanges: sponsoring projects that promote artistic and educational cross-cultural dialogues.
Learning Communities: Professional LEARNING Communities (PLC’s) are built from an ORGANIC process of collective learning that merges the arts and sciences across cultures in service to education.
What We DO…
Students (of all ages) learn better when they are self-motivated and apply what they learn beyond the classroom. The Arts and Creative Media—when applied to research and solid pedagogy, must promote creative problem solving, altruism, and scientific research in service to both personal and Community or World challenges.
We assist artists and educators to dialogue, produce, and innovate curriculum—and build learning opportunities across diverse disciplines, abilities, beliefs, races, and cultures.
