This collection considers how Canadian art educators are engaging with a new range of approaches to museum education, and why educators are responding to 21st century challenges in ways that are unique to Canada.
Organized into three sections, this collection reconceptualizes museums to consider accessibility, differences in lived experiences, and how practices create impactful change.
With the overarching concept of relationality between art museums and interdisciplinary perspectives, authors consider methodological, philosophical, experiential and aesthetic forms of inquiry in regional museum contexts from coast-to-coast-to-coast that bring forward innovative theoretical standpoints with practice-based projects in museums, articulating how museums are shifting, and why museums are evolving as sites that mediate different and multiple knowledges for the future. Informed by social justice perspectives, and as catalysts for public scholarship, each chapter is passionate in addressing the mobilization of equity, diversity and inclusivity (EDI) in relation to practices in the field.
By weaving the learning potential of interacting with artworks more fully within situated and localized social and cultural communities, the authors present a distinct socio-political discourse at the heart of teaching and learning. Rupturing preconceived ideas and sedimentary models, they suggest a discourse of living futures is already upon us in museums and in art education.

Tentang Penulis
As artists, researchers and art educators, four colleagues in art education at Concordia University collaborated in the narrative and relational process of examining the self in order to connect with others, exploring life writing as a form of research/creation.Trish Osler paints en plein air. Teaching visual art and art history for fifteen years, she draws on aspects of her identity as a/r/tographer to design and implement approaches to creative thinking and learning. Her transdisciplinary practice aims to deepen understanding and awareness of arts-based approaches to critical thinking and focuses on post-human, new materialist theory. Through embodied engagement with the environment and through artistic inquiry, her work demonstrates the becoming empowerment and reciprocity of place-based art making.
