The Education Program aims to provide both students and teachers with an informative, stimulating and multi-sensory out of classroom experience that enhances the learning potential for students and teachers visiting the exhibition. Our program consists of Artist – Led Sculpture Workshops and Artist Spotlight Talks with exhibiting artists and Focus Tours guided by our team of Sculpture by the Sea Educators. We offer participants the opportunity to explore STEAM based activities, make, examine and discuss a range of creative, conceptual and artistic responses to site and landscape, form and contemporary ideas AND have fun!
Due to the evolving nature of COVID-19 in WA, please note the following updates and changes to the 2022 Alcoa Education Program for Sculpture by the Sea, Cottesloe, which will take place from 4–21 March.
After much consideration and in partnership with our Founding Sponsor and Major Partner Alcoa, Sculpture by the Sea has decided to move the Alcoa Education Program online.
In place of the onsite face-to-face program, we will be offering an exciting online interactive program in a bid to safeguard your safety and that of your students.
Artists who have exhibited in Sculpture by the Sea and educators facilitate an informative, stimulating, and multi-sensory sculpture making workshop virtually via Zoom.
The program has been adapted to allow students and teachers to meet and work with an artist online and actively explore material, themes and sculpture making skills based on the artists’ ideas, processes, and creative practice.
For Primary and Secondary students, suitable for Stage 2 – 6.
