ART EDUCATION AND CREATIVITY. THE “CREATIVE WORKSHOPS” FOR CHILDREN OF ESCOLA IMAXINADA

ABSTRACT

As artists and educators in a Faculty of Teacher Training, we carry out proposals based on the particular creative processes of the arts that we call “creative workshops”. In the beginning of this article, we present a collection of workshops in educational and artistic fields that have inspired our work as a collective called Escola Imaxinada. Finally, we focus on the development of three educational projects of our own and establish the parameters that we consider essential to identify creative processes.
