Throughout the Remediating Stevenson project, our team are hosting a series of site-specific arts education workshops across Hawai‘i, Sāmoa and Scotland. These events focus on drawing and creative writing with young people, supporting their development as creative practitioners and building their confidence as learners, artists, thinkers and writers. They have also provided the project artists with the chance to share and receive feedback on the development of their graphic adaptations from schoolchildren, student teachers and practicing teachers across all three sites of the project.  As the workshops encompass a range of primary and secondary schools and educators, and in Sāmoa specifically, also include a cohort of adult creative writers, multifaceted themes and ideas emerging from Stevenson’s Island Nights’ Entertainments collection have already influenced project artists, academic partners and investigators alike.
