We want to take a moment to once again thank our incredible Keynote speakers, as well as the performers from the InSEA 2019 Opening and Closing Ceremonies.  Your words and performances centered not only the theme of InSEA 2019: How is making understood across all dimensions of art education in the 21st century?  – but also offered a profound contribution to the four sub-themes: Place, Indigenize, Identity and Experiment.

In addition, we are grateful for the contributions of UBC staff from the Museum of Anthropology, Faculty of Education and Department of Art History, Visual Art and Theory (AHVA), as well as Conferences and Accommodations, Food Services and Building Operations, the UBC Chan Center for the Performing Arts and the Frederic Wood Theatre.

We will begin the work to archive the InSEA 2019 World Congress and update the website accordingly.  Please don’t forget to complete the InSEA 2019 Post-World Congress Evaluation.  Well, that’s it for now.  If you have any questions or comments, please contact either of us.

We wish you safe travels, courage and joy in making and teaching art and, we look forward to meeting again!

InSEA 2019 FINAL Program

Attached is the link to the FINAL revision of the InSEA 2019 Program (July 9, 2019).  We made a few important corrections – including room numbers and details concerning the Museum of Anthropology (with your name badge, you will receive $2.00 off the admission fee.).

• Please upload the final version of the InSEA 2019 Program (and thank you for deleting any previous versions). There will be no more electronic updates during the World Congress.  Here is the link:  https://www.insea2019.org/program

Please take a moment to come to the Audain Art Centre first and third floor lobbies:  

• On the first floor, InSEA 2019 volunteers are here to assist you with any questions from way finding and technical assistance to places to eat and visit – both on campus and in Vancouver.
• On the third floor, enjoy a refreshment break, visit the Exhibition Hall (check out the latest in art supplies, books and resources) and of course, visit and participate in the Ongoing Making Workshops, as well as many of the MW sessions that are in the Schedule from A-T.

A quick note to presenters:

• Please remember to bring your computer and adapter to the room where you will be presenting. If time permits, check out the room in advance of your session.  Or – perhaps notice the technical set-up for those who are presenting in a similar room to yours yet earlier in the schedule.
• If you are presenting in one of the rooms at the Museum of Anthropology, they have asked that you also bring your presentation on a USB drive. This will facilitate their offering of technical assistance for each session.
• Finally, if you are offering a Short Visual Presentation (SVP), regardless of location – consider saving it on a USB and loading all presentations on one computer – perhaps, the first one who is scheduled to speak.
