Register for state arts education conference

Online registration is now open for the N.H. State Council on the Arts’ 2014 Arts Education Partnership Conference, “The Arts as Inspiration for Learning, Teaching, Making, Living.”

This year’s conference takes place Oct. 31-Nov. 2 at the Barbara Harris Conference Center and Crotched Mountain Rehabilitation Center in Greenfield, N.H.

“Arts as Inspiration” will focus on inclusion for all youth as well as how Universal Design for Learning can be used as a guiding tool for arts learning.

Educators, school administrators, teaching artists, arts specialists, youth development leaders, parents and community arts leaders are invited to attend and explore new ways that schools and communities can provide quality arts education and programming that encourages creativity, making art and craft, innovation and critical thinking skills.

Conference workshops will include mosaic murals, improvisational jazz, percussion, weaving, ceramics, steel drums, photography, creative writing, song writing, dance, theatre arts, eco-arts and performance assessments with handmade books.

During the weekend, mural artist David Fichter will lead participants in making a mosaic mural that will be donated to New Hampshire’s Hospital for Children in Manchester.
