Join Nottingham Contemporary for an art-making and practice-sharing educator session led by Associate Artists Milee Lee and Amelia Daiz. This session will be part of a special viewing of two new exhibitions.

Shahana Rajani's exhibition Lines that world a river لکیروں سے دریا تھامنا considers themes of the sacredness and symbolism of rivers and the environmental impact of human construction on communities. Dala Nasser's exhibition Cemetery of Martyrs uses mourning materials and rubbings in charcoal and other materials to connect memory, mourning and remembrance.

• Explore approaches to creating environments for discussion, reflective thinking and making in the classroom with our free gallery resources developed by our Associate Artist team.
• Meet the learning team who work with schools across the city, and find out more about their schools offer, including paid artist workshops and free self-led visits.
• Join the associate artists for exploratory activities in the galleries linked to our two new exhibitions with artworks including film, installation, and paintings.
• Create in their galleries: Teachers will have an opportunity to add their creations to Shahana Rajani's exhibition as part of a school partnership project.

Suitable for educators of all stages, including Early Years, SEN/D practitioners, tutors at FE and HE, and early career teachers.
