ELAN ArtEd also continues to ensure that Artists are remaining engaged, and able to collaborate and contribute in this new milieu.\u00a0 ArtistsInspire experiences have undergone a transformation, but the program remains as committed as ever to our core values.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately following the announcement that schools would be closed, Christie Huff, the ArtistsInspire team leader, acted swiftly to reach out to ArtistsInspire artists who needed to convert their planned in-person experiences into alternate activities. An online conference was organized to connect, share concerns and brainstorm ideas for online arts education. We began to conceptualize the possibility of designing quality virtual interactive workshops for youth and families in response to Quebec youth craving interactive educational experiences. Our target audience is anglophone youth and their households, though one of the strengths of virtual workshops is that they can be accessed by anyone from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0054a6;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0054a6;\" href=\"https:\/\/artistsinspire.ca\/artist\/guillaume-jabbour\/\">Guillaume Jabbour<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, ELAN ArtEd Coach and music &amp; sound artist, organized a second online conference with music &amp; sound artists who had funding from our ACE and youth mental health projects, including Guillaume, Louise Campbell, Rob Lutes, Laura Teasdale, Greg Paul Stone, Ronnie Leblanc and Tim Piper. Though they were all experiencing varying degrees of anxiety in regards to the pandemic and their own circumstances, a productive meeting ensued and from that brainstorming Artists developed workshops, livestreams and more.<\/p>\n<p>As the ArtEd team worked on the administrative model for these new virtual workshops, the artists sculpted their offerings.\u00a0 Using Zoom as an instructional and interactive platform, the interaction between participants and artists remained a key focus for these workshops. The team worked closely with our educational partner, LEARN, who has been very supportive throughout the process.<\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4vkzlbu-ee6bbbfceee13525af5f6d89a5ea1d64\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-4vkzlbu-ee6bbbfceee13525af5f6d89a5ea1d64{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-4vkzlbu-ee6bbbfceee13525af5f6d89a5ea1d64 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-0  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #17a46a;\"><strong>ArtistsInspire\u2019s <em>Free Youth &amp; Family Interactive Online Workshops<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Our first workshops were offered in two-part series between April 20th and May 1st. During Part One, artists introduced themselves and the workshop, and led preliminary creation. Afterwards, a follow-up email was sent with instructional materials including documents, samples, videos, images and links so that participants could continue working. Participants were encouraged to email artists directly with questions, comments or requests for feedback as they worked throughout the week.\u00a0 One key feature of the program was having a co-facilitator, Guillaume Jabbour, managing the technical aspects of the Zoom conference. This gave the artists the freedom to discuss the subject matter and focus their attention on participants.<\/p>\n<p>In Part Two, participants were encouraged to discuss their artistic process and were given the opportunity to share their work. The artists were sensitive to the fact that sharing work can be daunting for any creator, and ensured a safe, inclusive, supportive and professional environment.\u00a0 A final email was sent, including any new information and instructions for sharing content with ArtEd\u2019s social media team.\u00a0 Testimonials that were shared online increased our audience engagement.<\/p>\n<p>Attendance ranged from 2 to 19 participants, with the majority between the ages of 10 and 17, and included youth from the Autism &amp; Arts group based in the Laurentians. There were also a number of adults who participated, some of whom were teachers. Regardless of the age or location of the participants and facilitators, in a way we were all in the same boat together: we were trying to make sense of the current situation through art, either directly or indirectly. A second round of workshops were offered the following week, this time in a one-off format, which also worked well.<\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4j07fru-b4ba4c63cbc81e4fbd9807f4f973f8ee\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-4j07fru-b4ba4c63cbc81e4fbd9807f4f973f8ee{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-4j07fru-b4ba4c63cbc81e4fbd9807f4f973f8ee hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-1  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_hr '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #17a46a;\"><strong>Highlights from ArtistsInspire Free Youth &amp; Family Interactive Online Workshops!<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>\u201cQuaranzine\u201d: Designed &amp; facilitated by Rachel McCrum &amp; Lisa Kimberly Glickman<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This workshop with poet Rachel McCrum and visual artist Kimberley Glickman explored how to capture the story of a day in these strange times on paper, and turn it into a book from a single sheet of paper.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0054a6;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0054a6;\" href=\"https:\/\/artistsinspire.ca\/artist\/rachel-mccrum\/\">Rachel McCrum<\/a><\/strong><\/span> is a poet, performer and workshop facilitator.\u00a0 Originally from Northern Ireland, she has taught and performed in Greece, South Africa, Haiti, and Canada, and is currently working on the Atwater Poetry Project.\u00a0 Rachel had been scheduled to work with youth at Laurentian Regional High School in Lachute with CHSSN youth mental health funding when school closures cancelled her plans.\u00a0 She said that she \u201creally enjoyed the Zoom platform, it was communal and collective, even though we were all separated and sitting individually.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 Rachel also expressed her appreciation for the facilitation handled by ELAN.\u00a0 \u201cIt gave me the freedom to interact as an artist and a storyteller.\u201d\u00a0 She went on to say that \u201cELAN is so proactive in terms of evaluation and research.\u00a0 They\u2019ve been encouraging, supportive and strategic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rachel said of her collaboration, \u201cI\u2019m not a visual artist but needed to engage visually with the zines.\u00a0 Working with Lisa Kimberly allowed that in a way that was appealing and sophisticated.\u201d\u00a0 In turn, Lisa Kimberly said that working with Rachel was \u201cabsolutely amazing!\u00a0 I love working in collaboration and across the curriculum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0054a6;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0054a6;\" href=\"https:\/\/artistsinspire.ca\/artist\/lisa-kimberly-glickman\/\">Lisa Kimberly Glickman<\/a><\/strong><\/span> is a visual artist, painter, art educator, and photographer.\u00a0 She has an MEd in Arts Education from McGill and a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design.\u00a0\u00a0 Of the <em>Quaranzine<\/em> experience she praised the outreach of the online program, \u201cI really enjoyed reaching an audience that otherwise wouldn\u2019t exist.\u00a0 The diversity was great and it was neat that anyone could join.\u00a0 It allowed for a more heterogeneous, diverse group, rather than what you would see in a neighbourhood school.\u201d ELAN ArtEd is \u201csimply fantastic,\u201d Lisa Kimberly said. \u201cThe work ELAN does for art in the community and now online is amazing.\u201d\u00a0 She continues her own work &#8211; currently on \u2018corona-mandalas\u2019 &#8211; though she notes,\u00a0 \u201cArt provokes a physiological reaction in a person.
