Description
As part of the Erasmus+ program, we designed and developed activities and materials, attempting to connect the arts, nature, technology and education. Students and teachers, collaborated experientially based on Arts and Cultural heritage and created communication bridges between students and teachers from five different countries, and different educational systems. In our presentation we will focus on two workshops: A) visual art, with the theme: "Red-figure and Black-figure Vessens" and B) music, which concerns the teaching and performance of the song "Menexedes and Zoumboulia".We dealt with the intangible cultural heritage as, with its dynamics, it is a suitable means for international communication and respect for diversity, the promotion of global understanding and social cohesion, the cultivation of the ideal of peace and sustainable development in the world.
