As part of the Sparkling Science project at the “Circus of Knowledge”, we would like to extend an invitation to attend a unique symposium focusing on the compelling and intriguing relationship between science and art.

Join us and experience two inspirational days full of fascinating keynote speeches, hands-on workshops, and stimulating discussions.

We will explore how art-integrated educational approaches can foster creativity, motivation, and collaboration, and we will take a look at the potential of bringing art and science together.

Program Highlights:

• Keynote speeches/speakers: Cathérine Conradty, Dorothea Hilliger, Julia Lauss
• Interactive workshops featuring real-world examples demonstrating creative educational approaches at primary and secondary schools, as well as institutions of higher education
• Share ideas and engage with educators, researchers, artists, and other interested parties

The symposium is geared towards educators*, researchers, students, artists, and anyone else who is curious about learning more about innovative educational approaches.

* Educators taking part in the symposium can earn continuing education credits (12 teaching units)!
