In this episode we talk about how we can stimulate the creativity of children and young people. As there is no single and simple answer to this question we have invited several guests from different disciplines and backgrounds who give creative lessons to children and young people.
You will hear Amandine Moutier who gives theater workshops, Niels Engels, a musician who gives drums and percussion lessons, Véronique Cloos who introduces young children to music, and Raphael Gindt, an independent artist who gives graffiti lessons. Together we will discuss how to help children and young people develop their creativity. Every child is naturally creative but loses their creativity with age because of a fear of judgment. That’s why to help them keep their creativity, we need to create an environment of trust where they will not be judged or criticised and where their ideas will be welcomed and supported.
Then we will present two initiatives that give access to cultural and creative activities at an affordable price: Cultural’ll and its Kulturpass for people with a modest income and applicants for international protection, and the UGDA, responsible for music education in some 55 municipalities in Luxembourg.
