The Art of Education is a series of annual methodological conferences on broadly defined culture and social activities in curricula, as well as opportunities for cooperation between schools and public and non-public cultural institutions (including local government cultural institutions or NGOs) in developing educational projects. The first of these was held in 2013.

The Art of Education conference is going on tour in Poland again! This time, as part of it, we want to initiate a several-year series We learn from you and create a map of important, interesting educational projects that are being developed across the country. The Art of Education is primarily a meeting of people in practice involved in the cultural education of children and young people, both formal and informal. They are attended by teachers_women, educators_goods, educators_tors, animators_tors and artists_sts. We create a space for conversation, discussion and exchange of experiences. The theme will be local conditions and work in the context of specific places and the challenges they pose to those involved in education. These conferences are not only a space for mutual inspiration and networking, but also an excellent opportunity to establish relationships that can turn into joint projects. It's also a moment to reinforce the notion that culture is an essential tool for enabling people to function in society.

This year we have already visited Szczecin and Gdansk, and will visit Elblag and (at the same time) Slupsk, Ustka and Koszalin.
