Por qué educación artística, por qué AMDA.
Gracias a la materia de educación artística fue que yo encontré mi vocación por la música y la enseñanza, camino que me llevó hasta un doctorado en política y administración cultural. Hoy más que nunca, estoy convencida del poder que tienen las experiencias artísticas fuera y dentro del aula, y no hay nada que quiera más que permitirle a cada niño y joven Mexicano acceder a una educación artística íntegra y holística en cualquier institución de cualquier región del país.
No nos bastan reformas educativas, no nos bastan libros nuevos, no nos bastan nuevos mandos.
Regenerar al país comienza en el aula, y es en la materia de las artes, con maestros preparados, confiados, y apasionados, que lograremos fortalecer el pensamiento crítico y creativo de nuestros alumnos.
Las artes nos invitan a soñar, a equivocarnos, a recalcular; son un espacio para
experimentar, para crear desde cero, para corregir una y otra vez. La clase de artes no puede ser menos que eso.
El maestro de artes merece ser reconocido ante nuestro sistema educativo como
el docente que es, para así permitirle capacitarse y superarse cuantas veces lo quiera y lo necesite.
Me identifico por completo con los objetivos de la AMDA y me entusiasma formar parte de este equipo, no es por mí, no es por la asociación, no es por el arte…es por México, por los maestros, por nuestros niños.
