UNESCO INTERNATIONAL ARTS EDUCATION WEEK CELEBRATION AT CALEB BRITISH ACADEMY, NIGERIA


It has been a wonderful experience for me teaching Art and Design at Caleb British Academy. I am proud to say that CBA supports the Arts for wholesome learning experience. During this year UNESCO International Arts Education Week, CBA celebrated it in grand style with an exhibition of students’ artworks and a painting contest.

The Art exhibition was a great revelation of impeccable talent at CBA, not surprisingly the viewers were engrossed by the students’ creative expressions and artistic renditions. The artists themselves also derived an amazing amount of satisfaction at seeing their works displayed and admired. The winning painting will be published on the cover page of the school’s new Sketch pad.




young ones will need to be inventive, resourceful and imaginative. And the best way to foster that creativity is through arts education. Arts education is a key to training generations capable of reinventing the world that they have inherited. At CBA, we are raising the standard of art education. It is fulfilling teaching Art and Design at CBA.

I remain committed to the cause of inspiring and championing the next generation of artists, art lovers and creative future leaders in Nigeria and beyond.

The report of the Arts Education week at CBA  has been uploaded on the International Society for Education through Art (InSEA) website. Here is the link:
