Online Workshop
Nurturing Human Creativity
in Cosmic Education
for Elementary guides, assistants or parents of children aged 6-12
This workshop explores presenting art in a cosmic way, emphasizing its interconnectedness with the universe and human history. Participants will learn to design key lessons that integrate themes like nature, storytelling, and culture to inspire creativity. The workshop focuses on nurturing the development of the hand (artistic skills and techniques), the eye (understanding the elements and principles of art), and the mind (knowledge of art and its connections with history, science, and other subjects).
Learn how to support the emergence of artistic creativity in Cosmic Education.
"The universal development of the wondrous language of the hand will come not from a ‘school of design’ but from a ‘school of the new human’ which will cause this language to spring forth spontaneously like water from an inexhaustible spring.”
(Montessori, The Advanced Montessori Method, p. 309)
