Principles and practices of World Music Pedagogy will be at the center of demonstrations and conversations throughout the week with attention to culturally sensitive, diverse and inclusive music practices in K-12, university and community settings.
Participants will explore Smithsonian Folkways’ rich ethnographic, audio, film and print archives and draw deeper connections to the vibrant cultures in their classrooms, communities and beyond.
