This course is offered as a massive open online course (MOOC). It is based on the European Commission-funded research project ‘Acting on the Margins: Arts as Social Sculpture’ (AMASS, 2020–2023). The MOOC provides an overview of socially engaged arts (SEA). Participants will become familiar with SEA practices and gain an understanding of arts-based processes and practical work, as well as their possible application in different contexts and organisations. The course combines SEA, people-centred design, application of arts-based methods, expert videos and practical exercises.

Last update: Mgr. Lucie Jakubcová Hajdušková, Ph.D. (29.08.2023)

Upon completion of this course, participants will understand, be familiar with and recognise the diverse methodologies of SEA. Participants will also gain knowledge of the principles, ethics and concepts of community arts. They will explore SEA, the dialogical and pedagogical orientations of SEA in engaging with marginalised communities. The course’s overarching goal is to empower artists, art and design students, cultural practitioners and workers, art educators and policymakers to implement innovative yet appropriate projects with marginalised communities by using arts and design approaches.
