THE ARTS EDUCATION WEEK (SEA), IS AN INTERNATIONAL CELEBRATION, PROMOTED BY UNESCO THAT SEEKS TO "SENSITIZE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF ARTS EDUCATION; AND PROMOTING CULTURAL DIVERSITY, INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE AND SOCIAL COHESION". IN CHILE, IT HAS BEEN CELEBRATED SINCE 2013 AND IS AIMED AT BOYS AND GIRLS AND YOUNG PEOPLE OF SCHOOL AGE, A STAGE OF EDUCATION WHERE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ARTS AND CREATIVITY PLAY A FUNDAMENTAL ROLE IN GENERATING FREER AND MORE AWARE SUBJECTS OF THEIR ENVIRONMENT. DURING THE SPECIFIC DAYS OF THE CELEBRATION, THE PARTICIPANTS OF THE NETWORK ARE INVITED TO MAKE VISIBLE THEIR EXPERIENCES AND ARTISTIC PROJECTS, AROUND THE THEME, WHICH THE SEA GUIDES EACH YEAR. THE 2020 MOTTO IS "TRANSFORM THE PRESENT, DREAM THE FUTURE" AND IT IS AN INVITATION TO PROMOTE AND ENHANCE THE PROTAGONISM OF CHILDREN, GIRLS AND YOUNG PEOPLE (NNJ) THROUGH COLLABORATIVE ARTISTIC EXPERIENCES THAT DEVELOP AND MAKE VISIBLE THEIR IDEAS, LIKES, INTERESTS, ACTIONS AND CONCERNS. IN ADDITION, IT INVITES THE ADULT WORLD TO RECOGNIZE AND VALUE IT. THE REALIZATION OF ARTISTIC PROJECTS IS PROPOSED AS AN EFFECTIVE SUPPORT FOR TRANSFORMING PARTICIPATION, CAPABLE OF PLASMING THE DREAM OF A DIFFERENT WORLD THAT MODIFIES PRESENT REALITIES.
TO PARTICIPATE, INSTITUTIONS MUST REGISTER ON THE INSTITUTIONAL PAGE OF THE MINCAP: HTTP://SEMANAEDUCACIONARTISTICA.CULTURA.GOB.CL/ . THIS PLATFORM PROVIDES TOOLS TO PLAN ACTIVITIES AND ALLOWS THE DIFFERENT COLLABORATING INSTITUTIONS TO SHARE MATERIALS, NEWS, DISSEMINATE THEIR ACTIVITIES AND REPORT ON SPECIFIC CALLS FOR EACH REGION. DURING SEA, EDUCATIONAL ESTABLISHMENTS ARE OPENED TO RECEIVE ART AND CULTURE, INVITING ARTISTS AND CULTORS TO CARRY OUT TALKS, ACTIONS, TOURS AND/OR WORKSHOPS OPEN TO THE EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITY THAT GENERATES A MEMORABLE AND UNDERSTANDING ARTISTIC EXPERIENCE CONTRIBUTES ART TO EDUCATION. IF AN ARTIST WANTS TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS CELEBRATION, THEY CAN ACCESS THIS PLATFORM AND REVIEW THE SCHOOLS AND LICEOS OF THEIR LOCALITY THAT ARE ADHERED TO THE SEA AND WHO WISH TO BE CONTACTED BY AN / A ARTIST OR CULTOR.
AFTER 7 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, THE SEA IN OUR COUNTRY HAS STOPPED BEING AN ISOLATED LANDMARK AND HAS BECOME A PERMANENT PLATFORM TO DISSEMINATE ARTISTIC EDUCATION EXPERIENCES AND FAVOR COLLABORATION NETWORKS BETWEEN SCHOOLS, CULTURAL SPACES, PLAYSCHOOLS, UNIVERSITIES, ARTISTS AND CULTORS. THROUGH THE WEB PAGE HTTP://SEMANAEDUCACIONARTISTICA.CULTURA.GOB.CL/ WHICH REMAINS ACTIVE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, THE DIFFERENT INSTITUTIONS THAT REGISTER CAN CONTACT THEMSELVES, SHARE NEWS, VIDEOS, RELATED ART PAGES, EDUCATION PAGES. DURING THE SPECIFIC CELEBRATION DAYS, THE NETWORK PARTICIPANTS ARE INVITED TO VISIBILIZE THEIR EXPERIENCES AND ARTISTIC PROJECTS, AROUND THE THEME, WHICH EACH YEAR GUIDES THE SEA. DURING THE PRESENT YEAR AND IN THE CONTEXT OF THE HEALTH CRISIS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE SEA HAS KEPT ALL ITS PLATFORMS ACTIVE TO OFFER ONLINE ACTIVITIES TO THE DIVERSE EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITIES THAT REQUIRE IT TODAY. IN THIS WAY, THE CALL WAS MADE FOR CULTURAL SPACES, UNIVERSITIES, EDUCATIONAL ESTABLISHMENTS TO CONTINUE TO REGISTER AND ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN THE WEB PLATFORM, RELATING TO IT AS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT OF DISSEMINATION AND EXCHANGE OF ARTICLE PRACTICES.

ALTHOUGH THERE WAS NO FORMAL EVALUATION OF THE PROGRAM, WE CAN MENTION SOME ELEMENTS THAT HAVE ALLOWED THE CONSOLIDATION OF THE SEA MODEL IN CHILE:
- COLLABORATION AT DIFFERENT LEVELS AND BETWEEN DIFFERENT ACTORS: THE SEA IS INSTALLED ON THE PREMISE OF COLLABORATION, AS ONE OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF QUALITY ARTISTIC EDUCATION. IN THIS SENSE, IT IS ORGANIZED BY AN EXECUTIVE BOARD IN WHICH DIFFERENT ACTORS LINKED TO ARTISTIC EDUCATION CONVERGE: UNESCO, MINCAP, MINEDUC, UNIVERSITY OF CHILE AND BALMACEDA YOUNG ART - BAJ. THE ARTICULATION OF ACTORS ALSO SUPPOSES A SECOND BENEFIT: ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY, SINCE, IN A LOGIC OF NETWORK, INTERACTION AND INTERDEPENDENCE, THE MANAGEMENT OF THESE PROJECTS OR PROGRAMS INVOLVES RESOURCES BEYOND THEIR OWN OR ASSIGNED ONES.
- ART AS A WAY OF KNOWING: SEA IS A PRIVILEGED MOMENT TO MAKE VISIBLE THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF ART IN EDUCATION AND TO POSITION ART EDUCATION AS A WAY OF UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEXITY OF THE CURRENT WORLD. IN THIS CONTEXT, DURING THESE 6 YEARS OF TRAVEL, THE SEA HAS EMPHASIZED IN RELIEVING ART AS A WAY OF KNOWING, WITHOUT REDUCING IT TO A MERE DOING. TO ACHIEVE THIS, EACH YEAR, A DIFFERENT THEME IS DEFINED THAT GUIDES THE CELEBRATION, INVITING TEACHERS, ARTISTS, EDUCATORS AND STUDENTS TO REFLECT AND DEVELOP PROJECTS ON CONTEMPORARY ISSUES.
- CONSOLIDATION OF A FLEXIBLE CELEBRATION MODEL: THE CELEBRATION MODEL IS ARTICULATED AROUND AN OFFICIAL PROGRAM, LED BY THE EXECUTIVE BOARD AND THE REGIONAL SECRETARIES OF CULTURE AND A PROGRAM SELF-MANAGED BY LOCAL CULTURAL AGENTS (SCHOOLS, CULTURAL SPACES, UNIVERSITIES, FROM THE EXECUTIVE TABLE, A THEME IS PROPOSED, GUIDING DOCUMENTS ARE PREPARED FOR EACH OF THE SUMMONED AGENTS (SCHOOLS, CULTURAL SPACES, UNIVERSITIES, ARTISTS), WITH THE AIM OF ENCOURAGING PARTICIPATION, MAKING THE EMPHASIS OF EACH CELEBRATION AND CONTRIBUTE WITH PEDAGOGICAL SUGGESTIONS ARTICULATED FROM 4 FUNDAMENTAL AXES OF ARTISTIC EDUCATION: THE REFLECTIVE PROCESS, THE CREATIVE PROCESS, THE LINK WITH THE CONTEXT; AND, THE VISIBILITY AND ENHANCEMENT OF THE PROCESSES DEVELOPED.
- INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF THE ARTISTIC EDUCATION WEEK: A HIGHLY RELEVANT ELEMENT IN THE CONSOLIDATION OF THE CHILEAN SEA MODEL HAS BEEN THE INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF THIS INITIATIVE, THROUGH DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS OF PUBLIC POLICY. FOR EXAMPLE, FROM THE MINCAP, IN THE 15 REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY, TABLES OF ARTISTIC EDUCATION HAVE BEEN FORMED THAT FAVOR COLLABORATIVE WORK BETWEEN INSTITUTIONS, EDUCATORS, ARTISTS AND GROUPS THAT DEVELOP TRAINING PROCESSES IN ART AND CULTURE. SINCE 2016, THE REGIONAL CELEBRATIONS OF THE SEA HAVE BEEN PROMOTED AS PART OF THE WORK PLAN OF THESE TABLES.
