The Dutch artist and Art-teacher Marja de Jong introduces a new view on art
Different foundations support the initiative to
create the possibility for teachers to paint by themselves intensively and
discuss about the way the art process develops with them and
also with children.
During a week teachers of primary schools and children from the neighborhood of
Saksala work on their own project, both groups will be taught by artist and
art-teacher Marja de Jong. The teachers are staying on Saksala for 6 days and
the children are coming 3 days, they come every day from their home.
