A collective of educators and students engages in immersive art- and design-driven practice to reimagine higher-education and primary-school teaching and learning at, and beyond, the University of Teacher Education. 

Rooted in curiosity, care and attentiveness to diverse histories and voices, the collective offers open-ended impulses that anyone can adapt, question or extend across a growing constellation of educational hubs.

EduHub: Schaulager Münchenstein

Co-Creation: 

An immersive collaboration between the Emerging Space Collective and Schaulager Münchenstein, guided by education director Andy Blättler:

  1. Encounter – students dive into the current exhibition; Andreas Blättler introduces Schaulager’s art-education facilities.
  2. Design – back at the University of Teacher Education, the students develop age-appropriate art-learning formats for kindergarten children.
  3. Field test – during a follow-up visit, kindergarten groups enter the exhibition; in small teams the students run their prototypes on site, supported by Schaulager educators and kindergarten teachers.

Why it matters:
  • Authentic testing in a world-class art space deepens students’ professional practice.
  • Joint creation by art educators, student teachers and kindergarten staff sparks fresh approaches to early-childhood art learning.
  • Young children gain direct, sensory access to contemporary art in a setting designed for dialogue and exploration.
  • The partnership foregrounds attentive listening and shared decision-making so that children, educators and art professionals co-shape every step of the experience.
