MOSHI Digital Art School - online workshops
It is in the pleasure of making and playing that we learn best
Our screens are tools of creation and discovery to explore and create artworks. MOSHI offers online workshops for children from 6 years old and teenagers in order to:
browse the internet with a critical eye
discover works of art around the world
travel in time through the history of art
exchange ideas with the other participants
debate in philosophical way
develop creativity and innovation with digital tools
create digital artistic content
learn to code in fun way
MOSHI is a project-based learning pedagogy that allows children and teenagers to strengthen their abilities in fundamental subjects: writing, reading, logic, analytical skills. They gain new knowledge and skills to navigate the complexity of our physical and digital world with serenity.
MOSHI makes it possible to combine several subjects in one hour of workshop: oral and written English/French thanks to philosophical debate, history and geography with the discovery of artworks around the world, maths and sciences with digital artmaking.
The workshops take place by videoconference: Zoom, Discord, Google Meet - the platform depends on the subject covered. The link to join the workshop is provided to you after registration and payment.
All apps and websites for creating digital artwork are free.
We cover an art topic during two weeks in order to allow time for discussion and artmaking.
