Literacy Through The Arts!

A representative from Education, Culture and Employment stopped by the Arts expo today to inform artists about an opportunity to participate in a workshop that is being pulled together by the NWT teachers Association called “Literacy Through The Arts.” The conference is designed to help educators integrate and infuse Arts into K-12 literacy and learning programs.

 

ECE has offered to cover the registration fee, which I believe was 450$ for Artists who wish to participate in this conference which features:

 

Anastasia Hendry, Haida; Fabric Artist; Learning Through The Arts, Aboriginal Program Coordinator for Western Canada

 

Shelley MacDonald, Mi’kmaq; Dramatist; Film Maker; Core Artist, Learning Through The Arts
