Advocating & Empowering Art Education
About the Summit
SpArK Summit 2026 is a two-day gathering that repositions art at the core of education. Rather than being treated as an add-on, creative practice is explored as a powerful way for children to think, learn, express, and connect with the world around them.
Bringing together young learners, educators, artists, cultural practitioners, institutions, and communities, SpArK offers a shared space for conversation, experimentation, and reflection. Through immersive experiences and collective exchange, the summit examines how art-based learning nurtures confidence, curiosity, and social awareness in children.
