Artemide and its Casa Laboratorio Il Cerquosino are spaces for research and experimentation for the creation of an educational community that promotes intercultural dialogue, social inclusion and respect for nature.
For over 25 years, at a national and international level, we have been offering non-formal education courses, aimed especially at those who live in situations of exclusion and economic, social and cultural disadvantage.
Through creativity, the arts, the use of the body and environmental education we encourage awareness of oneself and one’s abilities; we create social networks in which every man, woman, boy and girl can express themselves and experiment.
We plant seeds of welcome and build bridges beyond prejudice.
We believe in a world where differences are a value, inclusion a daily practice and nature an example of harmony.
We are always open to experimenting with new ideas and methodologies, allowing them to transform us and help us imagine sustainable and inclusive alternatives.
We pursue mutual respect, value diversity and promote originality so that everyone can feel welcomed and recognized.
We believe that learning occurs at any time, through any medium and at any age. We question what we know to discover and explore new topics and we share our knowledge and doubts with the people we work with and for.
We believe in the strength of each person to get up, resist and reinvent themselves to become an active part of an interconnected world where care, hospitality and social justice are central.
