Our Mandate
The CSEA/SCÉA mandate
We are dedicated to the visual arts as essential to student learning in schools, colleges, universities, community settings and other venues, because art education is the conduit to holistic human growth and development, both affective and cognitive. The visual arts are implicit in and expressive of culture. Engagement in and with the visual arts has the power to transform who we are individually and collectively.
Le mandat de la CSEA/SCÉA
Nous considérons les arts visuels comme indispensables à l’apprentissage des étudiants, que ce soit dans un contexte scolaire, collégial, universitaire, communautaire ou tout autre, car l’éducation artistique est étroitement liée à la croissance holistique et au développement de l’être humain sur les plans affectif et cognitif. Les arts visuels constituent le fondement de la culture et en sont l’expression. L’implication et l’engagement envers les arts visuels sont des sources de transformation personnelle et collective.
I think that one’s art is a growth inside one. I do not think one can explain growth. It is silent and subtle. One does not keep digging up a plant to see how it grows. — Emily Carr
