Each Professional Learning event will include an exhibition floor talk, a hands on making workshop, connections and curriculum mapping. Taking part in these events will present opportunities for collegial conversations around art teaching.

Engaging in professional learning engages skills that build confidence and competence in teaching and art practices, and teachers can accomplish more when drawing upon the experiences of other teachers. Connecting with the gallery will present opportunities to engage with contemporary issues and modes of practice.

All programs are free to join with materials supplied. Participants do not have to be members of the Tasmanian Art Teachers Association.
