Study visits for Art Educators

The Arts Education Platform is one of the components of Trans Europe Halles’ project Factories of Imagination. The primary purpose of the platform is to facilitate, exchange and transfer knowledge between arts educators in TEH network.
One part of the platform is to enable study visits for practising art educators within TEH network to learn more about educational practices through action based-learning.

Duration of the Visit

The duration of the visit should be one week or two weeks. The exchanges can take place anytime from November 2018 till July 2019. The visitor and hosting organisation will plan the visit together to find a period that suits both parties.
