Re-assemble Conference | FRIDAY 18 JULY 2025 

INCLUSIVE FUTURES: Exploring Art and Innovation in the Visual Arts Classroom.

ArtEdVic’s Re-assemble Art Education Conference in partnership with FedUni and BIFB

Join us for ArtEdVic’s first regional conference, where the intersections of inclusivity, technology and creativity are explored in an engaging one-day event. In partnership with Federation University and the Ballarat International Foto Biennale (BIFB), this dynamic gathering invites educators, artists, and researchers to explore approaches for using high- tech and low-tech tools – including AI – in the visual arts classroom.

Designed to spark curiosity and hands-on experimentation, the conference empowers educators to reimagine how technology can co-exist with traditional artmaking to support inclusive, engaging, and future-focused visual arts learning.
Through the keynote speaker presentations, workshops, and collaborative sharing sessions, participants will engage with the following key themes:

• Inclusive Innovation: Explore how both traditional and digital tools can empower
  students of all abilities, ensuring equitable access to creative expression.
• Ethics of Technology Use in Art Education: Explore the ethical considerations of
  using AI and emerging technologies in art education, including issues of privacy,
  academic integrity, and responsible use to support creativity and critical thinking.
• Creative and Critical Digital Literacy: Build confidence in blending digital tools with
  hands-on artmaking and discover practical ways to bring these approaches into your
  classroom.

This conference fosters space for regional voices, big-picture thinking, and an exploration of both high-tech and low-tech artmaking. Join ArtEdVic on this exciting daytrip to Ballarat as we learn about adaptable strategies to shape inclusive, future-focused classrooms.
