At the Intersection: Where Art and Education Meet

April 25, 2015 to September 27, 2015

This exhibition features the Infusion Cohort Program, in which six professional artists collaborated with a team of educators in six elementary schools across British Columbia to discover and develop ways to bring arts integration based practices into the classroom. This learning adventure took place over three years and inspired an approach to teaching in which students construct and demonstrate understanding through an art form.

This exhibition showcases how students embodied learning through diverse art forms such as movement, painting, drawing, weaving, sculpture, sewing, dyeing, printmaking, shadow puppetry and more.
