An educational journey

Art in the Digital Age is an innovative educational program designed to introduce students to the dynamic world of digital art and the transformative impact of technology on the creative process. Through hands-on workshops, guided tours, and discussions, students will explore how digital tools are changing the way art is created, shared, and experienced.

Program highlights:
Digital art exploration tours

Students will embark on guided tours that explore the evolution of art in the digital realm. From early digital art experiments to contemporary virtual and augmented reality installations, the tour will highlight key technological advancements and their influence on artistic expression.

Hands-on digital art workshops

In these interactive workshops, students will have the opportunity to experiment with various digital tools and techniques. Whether creating digital illustrations, 3D models, or interactive designs, students will learn how to harness technology in their own creative practices.
