International Arts Education Week is coming up from May 22 - 28, 2023. Designated by UNESCO in 2012, the week celebrates the arts, in their diversity, and arts educators which play a critical role in fostering and transforming humanity.
This year, The Canadian Network for Arts & Learning wants to Activate Arts Education in Canada by creating an online guide to promote and showcase activities happening across the country, both in schools and communities. Let us know if you are hosting:
- Workshops or lessons in schools (all grades)
- Community workshops or activities (especially if they are free)
- Performances, exhibits, showcases and other opportunities for people to experience or learn the arts
- Classes for community members (all ages!)
