East Asia Through the Lens of Visual and Material Culture
East Asia today represents a broad mosaic of ethnic, economic, geographic, and cultural diversity. Even in our current period of rapid political and economic globalization, within which the region has played a major transformative role, East Asia retains its deep and rich cultural and artistic traditions and practices. This FREE foundational seminar presented by Lehigh University and NCTA at the University of Pittsburgh will include interactive lectures and activities focusing on the visual and artistic material cultures of China, Japan, Korea and Vietnam. K-12 educators will explore and integrate a wide range of strategies and resources supporting an enriched classroom learning environment.
