The focus will be ‘The Culture of the Atelier and the Hundred Languages of Children‘.
The atelier is not just place for ‘art’, rather in Reggio Emilia, it represents a place of cultural expression. Art and other means of expression demonstrate the differences in the perceptions that people have and mirrors the society from where it has genesis. Loris Malaguzzi introduced ‘ateliers’ to the preschools of Reggio Emilia in the 60’s, deliberately choosing the French word atelier to honour the French artists who had contributed so much to the arts. The premise of the atelier was polysensorial exploration: where a child’s senses became the new allies for learning. The atelier was introduced to offer children materials and experiences for expression, exploration of artistic processes and to introduce them to new aesthetic dimensions. These processes were summarised in poetry by Loris Malaguzzi and are now widely known around the world as the metaphor of the Hundred Languages.
This professional learning opportunity is designed for educators who have attended Reggio Emilia Study Tours previously and are keen to return to take their learning further. This tour IS NOT SUITED to people just beginning to explore the principles of the Reggio Emilia educational project.
