Teacher Workshop: 'Shh! We're Not Supposed to Talk about Religion'

Explore the taboo of talking about religion and belief systems in the classroom. ArtSeed Director Josefa Vaughan and artist Takayuki Yamamoto (pictured here with a student) discuss how such topics can serve as open-ended prompts for critical thinking, creativity, and introspection. Following the discussion, participants are invited to join the Day of Dialogue program to hear from more artists featured in the exhibition Phantoms of Asia.
