Write about Asia<\/strong>\u00a0was offered by the East Asia Resource Center at the University of Washington in conjunction with the Seattle Asian Art Museum’s Gardner Center for Asian Art and Ideas.<\/a>\u00a0 This series was titled “What is Precious?<\/strong>” and explored arts that revealed ideas of what is precious, as well as precious ephemera and areas of knowledge that have been highly valued in different times and places in Asia, while expanding upon a theme in one of the Asian Art Museum’s newly reinstalled galleries. The workshop Write About Asia was offered following each public lecture lecture and facilitated by\u00a0Mary Roberts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Educators attended the public lecture from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. and then met for a writing workshop from 11:30 a.m – 2:00 p.m.\u00a0 During the workshop, time was given to solitary writing in response to the morning lecture. The workshop nurtured educators as writers through self-reflection and group discussion.\u00a0 Priority was given to full-time K12 teachers.<\/p>\n
