The National Education Policy (NEP) emphasizes a holistic, flexible, and multidisciplinary approach to education, including the arts.
In art education, we involve a variety of activities and methodologies "beyond curriculum," such as:
Integrative Projects: Combining art with other subjects like history, science, or literature to create interdisciplinary projects.
Community Engagement: encouraging students to participate in community-based art projects, public art installations, and local exhibitions.
Contemporary Practices: Introducing Students to Contemporary Art Practices, Digital Art, and New Media.
Cultural Exposure: organizing field trips to museums, galleries, and cultural sites to expose students to diverse artistic traditions and practices.
Workshops and Guest Lectures: Inviting artists, designers, and other professionals to conduct workshops and lectures, providing students with real-world insights and experiences.
Art Competitions and Exhibitions: Hosting or participating in art competitions and exhibitions to foster a sense of achievement and public recognition.
Student-Centered Learning: encouraging students to explore their own artistic interests and styles, fostering creativity and individual expression
