Perennial Programs
AIE Cabaret: Once or twice a semester, we gather in the Eliot-Lyman Room for a joyful and sometimes rambunctious evening of performances--including (but not limited to) song, dance, video, poetry, prose, comedy, and puppetry.
Project Zero at the Harvard Art Museums: Once a year arts educators from Project Zero, including PZ director Shari Tishman, lead AIE students and others in museum-learning exercises at the Sackler Museum (while the Fogg Museum undergoes renovations that are scheduled to be finished in 2014).
EduPedia: AIE students present before the core program class (and subsequently publish on the course website) findings from their collective, small-group research projects on influential arts educators and arts-education programs.
Continuing the Conversation: In late October of 2013, thanks to the ambitious efforts of an active AIE alumni community, we will host the third in an ongoing series of biennial weekend-long professional development conferences for arts educators on the HGSE campus.
HONK! Pedagogy Symposium: We host this day-long symposium in HGSE's Gutman Conference Center following the annual HONK! Festival that takes place over an October weekend in the streets of Somerville and Cambridge.
AIE Works: Each year in one of the gallery spaces in the recently renovated Gutman Library, we display a selection of visual art work--along with visual testimony to arts-education work--by AIE students, including photographs, paintings, drawings, framed writings, and--space allowing--three-dimensional works.
AIE Advisory Council Banquet: Each fall semester several members of the AIE program's advisory council, arts educators and advocates for cultural organizations in Boston and elsewhere, come to the HGSE campus to meet current AIE students and offer help in making career connections.
Arts for All: Toward the end of the year AIE students present fully developed proposals for a variety of arts-education initiatives to an audience of their peers and a mock board of funders that includes AIE director Steve Seidel and the core program course's three teaching fellows.
Project Zero Artists-in-Residence Program: In an effort to provide students more opportunities for involvement with Project Zero endeavors (beyond those afforded by a few work-study jobs and a wide variety of courses taught by PZ researchers), we have begun to enlist a few AIE students each year to work on artistic interpretations of PZ research.
