Youth Arts Project Management - starts 18th May 06, Manchester
This six day course provides an excellent, practical induction to developing and running a youth arts project, regardless of length, size or art form. Participants will begin by exploring the philiosophy of youth arts, including the 'what is art' debate; the intrinsic and extrinsic value of youth arts activity; the influence of youth culture on the arts in general; and arts as a vehicle for exploring social and political issues with young people.
Based on the popular Artsplan 'Get Sorted' series of courses this informative accredited course covers the strategies, skills and issues involved in devising and planning an arts project with and for young people. From initial ideas through to the nuts and bolts of delivery, using professional artists, funding, press, publicity and evaluation, this course will leave you feeling fully confident, qualified and inspired to successfully deliver your own youth arts project.
Aims:
· to explore the implications of young people engaging in specifically youth orientated cultural activity, and to establish ways of facilitating such involvement · to develop the skills needed to run a youth arts project to examine what encourages group investment in project work and to devise strategies appropriate for youth arts activity to explore a range of evaluative tools appropriate to youth arts
Young People, the arts and social inclusion - starts 10th May 06
Norwich
This six day course provides an excellent, practical induction to the benefits of using the arts with socially excluded young people, and the tools, skills and knowledge needed to run a successful youth arts project within this context. Through case studies and other means participants will explore social exclusion within a variety of contexts, and ways the arts can contribute to the development of young people within these areas. The course will progress to examine the practical issues involved in using the arts with vulnerable young people, at every stage of project planning and delivery, including child protection, behaviour management, partnership working and evaluation.
Aims:
· to explore and gain an understanding of how the arts can be used to promote the social inclusion of young people within the community to develop a comprehensive understanding of youth arts and youth culture to develop skills to successfully protect and safeguard young people involved in youth arts projects to gain practical experience of how youth arts can be used in interagency and partnership projects
