03 / BUILT WELL FOR THE ARTS
Support for the work of creating.
Neuroscience-informed learning in support of creative practice.
OUR DIRECTION
Built Well for the Arts
Creative work asks artists to pay attention, make choices, use their bodies and senses, and return to a practice over time. Built Well for the Arts explores how neuroscience-informed education can support those parts of the creative process without reducing art to a formula.
This direction includes musicians, actors, dancers, performers, and visual artists. We are interested in learning that helps artists explore perception, movement, attention, and expression while respecting the knowledge, discipline, and individual voice they already bring to their work.
TAKING SHAPE
What we are exploring
Learning through making

DEVELOPING TOGETHER
Built with the people it is meant to serve.
Our programs are still in development. We want the experience of the people and communities this work is intended to serve to help shape what we build, alongside the research that informs our approach.
