The Musical Brain and STEAM learning begins on November 4 at the Sergio Arboleda University Events Center, Hall 74, with a forum whose central theme is the interaction between science and music. On November 5, the meeting culminates with the Great International Suzuki Concert.

We connect with the world to promote global engagement and impact. By meeting thinkers, artists and scientists from different places, we share experiences of knowledge for our community.

We do this by creating partnerships with international organizations that increase the reach of Los Alcaparros and open up opportunities for research, programming, problem solving and exchange. In the past, our students have had the opportunity to travel to places like CERN, home of the Large Hadron Particle Collider in Switzerland, to work on one-of-a-kind art and science projects, and have participated in workshops with researchers at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.

Musical Brain and STEAM* learning will open a space for discussion around the impact of music and the arts on the brain development of children and youth.
