Dear All,
Please see below details of this year's Sackler Conference at the V&A.
The Conference takes place every two years and focusses on a topic of
current relevance for museum education. With recent announcements about
changes to the curriculum, a recognition that British design is
something to be nurtured and championed, a rising number of young people
needing work, and the growth in the creative industries as an employment
sector, we felt that it was a good time to discuss what the future holds
for design and what skills young people need to succeed and shape the
industry. We anticipate that the conference will be of interest for
people working in design education.
Sackler Conference: Creating the Future
Friday 11 October 2013, 10:00-18.30
Cost: £10
The Sackler Conference for arts education is generously funded by the
Dr Mortimer and Theresa Sackler Foundation.
The V&A seeks to inspire children and young people as well as support
talent and leadership in the field of design. This conference will
examine two questions: what does the future of design look like? and
what skills and know-how do children and young people need to shape it?
Presentations will be complemented with practical designer-led workshops
in the galleries.
