In accordance with the “Seoul
Agenda: Goals for the Development
of Arts Education,” which
was proposed by the Korean
government and unanimously
adopted by the UNESCO General
Conference in 2010, the fourth
week of May has been declared as
the “International Arts Education
Week.” Every year, during this week,
different countries share the value
and meaning of arts and culture
education.
Since 2012, KACES has annually hosted a variety of international programs during the International Arts Education Week, every fourth week of May. It is a moment for domestic and international field experts and arts educators to gather and discuss international discourses in depth. The week also offers the public to sympathize with the value and the impact of arts and culture education. Annual slogan for the lAEW is selected in response to the pertinent issue facing domestic and international society. Various programs, such as international symposiums, workshops, art projects, and performances are held to celebrate the week throughout the country.
