Two-Dimensional Artmaking with Discussion and Reflection Frameworks
Event Information
About this event
If you missed it in September, you can catch it this second time around. Two-dimensional mandala-making is a core, foundational visual art activity at Inner-City Arts. You’ll leave this workshop with the confidence, knowledge, and skills to successfully engage learners in creative, critical-thinking through the arts and have a good time doing it - both you and the students! This easily-accessible and easily-replicable process also provides options for purposeful adaptation to any content area, reinforcing other academic concepts you’re already teaching. The discussion and reflection protocol gets students talking about their own work and the work of peers in a safe, supportive, and constructive way, and can be used across different disciplines.
Inner-City Arts always uses the arts as the starting point for learning. No prerequisite knowledge is needed. All workshops are interactive and hands-on, even online.
