Behind WISPER is a team with a clear and critical view on art education. Below you can read more about what we do, but also about the methodology that is the cornerstone of everything we do and the values that drive us.
WISPER organizes artistic courses in dance, theater, music, photography, visual arts and literature for adults aged 18 and older.
There are courses for participants of every experience level, from absolute beginner to wayward advanced amateur artist. In addition to those courses, we are constantly developing projects and collaborations.
WISPER is an organization where people are connected and free to work on their art projects. It is important to us that anyone with artistic hunger or curiosity feels at home and can be themselves.
With our code of conduct, we are communicating our values and building an environment as positive and safe as possible, where it is clear what behaviours we ask of each other. All WISPER employees, teachers, students and volunteers are expected to read and agree to our Code of Conduct.
WISPER uses its own methodology for art education. The active approach is central: the courses all consist of learning-by-doing assignments. Meanwhile, we consciously focus on the group dynamics that you can use as an individual in a creative process.
Our classes mostly focus on production (making art yourself). Additionally, reception (experiencing art) and reflection (thinking about art) are also integrated into the learning process of each course.
