GREAT LITTLE ARTISTS

October 2 - 31, 2010

This exhibition presents the results of the project »Great Little Artists«, which was initiated by the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart and sponsored by the Robert Bosch Stiftung. The goal behind this two-year model project is not only to offer ongoing art education, but also to foster creativity and develop the sensory faculties as well as strengthen the role of artistic and aesthetic schooling in children at the kindergarten level. Four Stuttgart daycare centers with preschool teachers and museum educa-tors especially trained for the purpose are putting new forms of communicating art to children to the test. When the project reaches its conclusion, the Kunstmuseum will extend this offer to all daycare centers in the region. This exhibition project will be carried out in cooperation with the Museumspädagogischer Dienst (Museum Education Service) and three daycare centers in the State Capital of Stuttgart as well as Educcare Educational Daycare Centers. Prof. Dr. Daniela Braun from the Center of Competence for Education in Early Childhood of the Fachhochschule Koblenz is the supervisor and evaluator of the project.
