Become an agent of change
At iMAE we promote the concept of the artisteducator as one identity. This simply means we see art as education and education as art. Therefore an iMAE graduate is not an art teacher or teacher of art, but an artisteducator who uses their practice as a vehicle to enable agency and social change.
We draw attention to the need to work creatively across international boundaries to enable new understandings of cultural differences and diversity. We celebrate the international in our student community, our teachers and in the work we do through our Site Specific Colleges.
