What is Cultural Arts?

Cultural Arts is a CEESA-sponsored after school activity culminating in a festival hosted by a CEESA school. Prior to the festival itself, students work in their prospective afterschool programs towards the completion of a pre-assignment in line with the festival theme. Examples of past themes include typography, bookmaking, architecture, and textiles.

The Cultural Arts Festival is a very different kind of CEESA event compared to various student tournaments. While all CEESA events empower students to work as a team, learn from each other, and be good sportsmen, competition is often included. The goal of Cultural Arts is for students to witness, experience, and learn about the culture of their host country and to work with each other in creative ways. The festival is experiential, hands-on, and a lot of fun!
