Arts Educators Explore Arts And Empathy With 'Arts In Your Classroom' At Montalvo

Montalvo Arts Center, in partnership with Santa Clara County Artspiration, San Jose State University, and the Arts Council Santa Cruz County, is proud to announce its 16th annual conference for artists, educators, administrators, and members of the community interested in better understanding where arts and creative practice can enhance their professional and/or personal development: Arts in Your Classroom, a one-day learning conference in Saratoga on Saturday, March 3 from 9am to 4pm. The theme of this year's conference is "Bridging the Gap: Transforming Perceptions of Division." It will examine how the arts can build tangible connections and cultivate empathy in today's increasingly disparate and divisive world. Initiating the conversation is keynote speaker Jeff Chang, the American Book Award-winning author and Executive Director of the Institute for Diversity in the Arts at Stanford University. Participants will then delve deeper into relevant sub-themes through focused workshops led by thought leaders in the visual, performing, literary, and musical arts. Arts in Your Classroom will be hosted at Montalvo Arts Center, 15400 Montalvo Rd., Saratoga. To register ($25) and for more information, the public may visit montalvoarts.org or call 408-961-5858.
