Huge project at Colegio Newman in Madrid
Colegio Newman in Madrid did an impressive Scream from Nature project where the whole school participated, from the smallest children in the kindergarden, to the bachillerato students. Each level chose a specific environmental theme to learn about, and did Screams to go with the theme.
The project was a result from the workshop at Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, by EducaThyssen and Lise Wulff, and supported by the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Madrid. All the Screams were presented on screen in the hall of Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza.
Here is what Elmarina Binder Samways at the Art Department of Colegio Newman, writes:
