Through art it’s poosible.

EduArt is a nonprofit organization that creates learning spaces where children explore society and themselves through art.
Working in partnership with schools, we design art programs that help children express their thoughts and sensitivities while engaging with themes such as the environment, social issues, and the future.
By sharing their learning with the wider community, we spark dialogue and inspire a vision for a more inclusive and sustainable world.

WHAT WE VALUE

Embodied Learning

Through art education, learners ask meaningful questions and transform intuition and critical thinking into visible forms.
Hands-on, embodied experiences open the heart and connect knowledge with creativity—this is EduArt’s approach to embodied learning.

Expansive Mind

EduArt fosters an expansive mind by embracing diverse perspectives, values, and forms of expression.
By opening curiosity toward the world and engaging in dialogue across differences, learners cultivate empathy, creativity, and global awareness.

Co-Create Futures

Through collaborative art-making, children learn to turn differences into strengths and generate new value together.
The co-creation process nurtures creativity, communication, and the skills needed to shape sustainable and inclusive futures.

Social Implementation

EduArt connects learning beyond the classroom with communities, companies, and society at large.
When artistic expression engages with real-world issues, it leads to social impact, problem-solving, and meaningful connections.

OUR PROGRAMS

1. SDGsquares

SDGsquares is a two-day art program in which participants select a theme from the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and express it through square-format artworks. By freely combining recycled materials, students transform their ideas into visual form while cultivating awareness and the capacity to take thoughtful action toward the future.

2. The Art of Inquiry

THE ART OF INQUIRY is an inquiry-based art program that uses intuitive drawing and free writing—methods commonly found in psychology and art therapy—to give form to inner emotions, values, and reflections around philosophical themes.
Through this process, the program cultivates deep self-understanding and expands participants’ perspectives.

3. Social Link

Social Link is a co-creative art education program developed in partnership with local corporations, non-profit organizations, and public institutions.
Focusing on social issues such as gender equality and food loss, participants work together through creativity and problem-solving to explore these challenges and imagine meaningful solutions.

4. School Collaborations

From preschool to high school, we collaborate with schools to design custom art programs that deepen students’ understanding of the world. Integrated seamlessly into existing curricula, these programs expand thinking through dialogue and art-making.

5. Workshop

EduArt collaborates with local communities and cultural institutions to offer diverse art workshops that connect learning and creativity. We have partnered with institutions such as Koganei City Hakenomori Art Museum and Enoshima Aquarium to design workshops that explore modern Asian art and marine ecosystems through hands-on creativity.
