Budget cuts to public school programs in arts and technical education deprive children of valuable life skills.

Posted • The first Glass Madison Public Program is in two weeks! Join us for a panel discussion, “Glass and Material-Based Arts Environments as Third Teacher”

Fri., Oct. 27, 12:00-1:30pm
Elvehjem L150
Free and Open to the Public

The Reggio Emilia theory and practice of education posits one’s learning environment as the “Third Teacher,” expanding conventional models of learning. This panel discussion explores how material-based arts environments function as “third teacher” across a variety of learning programs. Our panel of organizers, activists, and teaching artists include three UW-Madison Glass Lab alumni. These individuals bring their training in glass to their current work in youth arts education in a wide variety of educational environments across the nation, meeting young creatives where they’re at in building lives of meaning for themselves.
