Designed for educators, this workshop introduces practical strategies and creative exercises that open up new ways of looking at, thinking about and writing about art. Teachers will explore approaches to critical, creative and reflective writing, gaining ideas and techniques that can be adapted for use in the classroom to support student engagement, observation and creative expression.
There will be opportunities for Q&A and light refreshments.
