Discover the colorful world of art education here.
Art: a language that everyone speaks
Art is a universal language that everyone speaks, regardless of age or background. For children it is an essential form of expression, a way to explore their inner world and communicate without limitations. Whether through visual arts, dance, music or theater, art allows children to express their emotions, ideas and dreams. At Big Brother Art Education, this understanding leads to a diverse range of workshops in seven art disciplines, directly on location in schools throughout the Netherlands.
The power of creativity
Creativity is like a muscle that needs to be developed and trained. It gives children the tools to approach problems in unique ways and come up with solutions that go outside the conventional path. Workshops are designed to be not only an introduction to various art forms, but also an invitation to embrace creative thinking. From 'Interactive with Micro:bit' to '3D printer pen drawing', the mix between art and technology opens new doors to innovation and discovery.
Personal and social development
Art education plays a crucial role in the personal and social development of children. By working together in workshops, they develop skills such as empathy, respect and valuing diversity. They also learn to think critically and reflect on their work and that of others. Activities suitable for all ages and grades give every child the opportunity to grow and shine.
Art as a bridge to the future
In today's rapidly changing world, it is essential that children are not only technically proficient, but also possess the creative and critical thinking skills that art education fosters. The emphasis on the importance of technical education in addition to art education, by combining the two, prepares children for the challenges and opportunities of the future.
