PROJECT / PROGETTO
Crescerèarte project was born in 2014, influenced mostly by insights from Bruno Munari’s life and work, Montessori pedagogy and Reggio Emilia method, which I personally gathered during the years.
During the Art workshops, Art and its tools are analyzed and explored, in order to develop children's creativity and a more aware and critical perspective on the surrounding world.
The workshops are focusing on children and young people, this is why they are mostly held in schools or other facilities. Each workshop is therefore unique, because it is developped according to their needs and age.
Il progetto di crescerèarte nasce nel 2014, influenzato principalmente da aspetti della vita ed opere di Bruno Munari, della pedagogia Montessori e del metodo Reggio Emilia.
Durante i laboratori si analizzano l'Arte e gli strumenti del fare Arte, con l'obbiettivo di sviluppare la creatività dei bambini ed il loro senso critico nei confronti del mondo che ci circonda.
I laboratori sono tenuti in scuole o altre strutture e sono aperti a bambini e giovani. Ogni laboratorio è unico e progettato specialmente per l'occasione, tenendo sempre conto delle esigenze e dell'età dei partecipanti.
