The works hop will be held Saturday 26 September at 15:00.

During this workshop, p articipants will get a chance to create their own oracle card.

The o racle cards will be collected into a deck, which participants will use for an oracle reading. The oracles cards do not need to have a fixed meaning; meaning is created together during the readings and ensuing conversations .

The workshop is open to everyone, regardless of prior artistic exp erience.

From 11 to 27 September 2026, Framer Framed presents Secret Arts Teachers, a group presentation in which the classroom enters the exh ibition space. The exhibition is the result of an international project by the Art Education research group at the Amsterdam University of the Arts, in which art teachers use their teaching practice as an artistic workspac e.

In Secret Arts Teachers, art teachers work on the basis of a single shared question: what does art look like when you create it at the heart of the classroom, together with students? The project is based on the concept of the Teach er as Conceptual Artist, in which the distinction between teachin g and making art is blurred. Teachers share their own artistic practice wi th the students and treat the classroom as a temporary art collective. The students are co-creators and the learning process itself is part of the w ork. On display in the exhibition are the surprising outcomes of these exp eriments, ranging from playful assignments to activist interventions and f orms of (deliberate) failure.

Secret Arts Teachers was initiated by the Art Education research group organised by the Amsterdam University of the Arts (AHK) and brought together twenty art teachers from primary and s econdary schools across the Netherlands. During various meetings in Amster dam, they exchanged experiences, developed new teaching methods and took p art in inspirational sessions led by artists and theatre makers. This gave rise to new educational assignments that allow room for uncertainty, play and failure, ranging from activist actions to the forgery of a masterpiec e.

Guided by guest curator Kevin van Braak the exhibition explores t he question of how art and education relate to one another when they are n ot approached as separate spheres, but as something that, in practice, con stantly intersects and evolves.
