Open drawing workshop under the theme: The City and Colors
As part of efforts to develop pedagogical practices toward innovative training, the Institute of Urban Technology Management at University of M'sila in Algeria is organizing an open painting workshop under the theme: “The City and Colors”, on April 21 and 22, 2026.
This workshop aims to encourage students and participants to express the urban space through artistic painting, highlighting the relationship between the city as a living architectural fabric and colors as an aesthetic element that reflects its diversity and identity. It also seeks to enhance creativity and develop artistic sensitivity in an interactive learning environment.
This initiative comes within the institute’s vision to renew training methods and connect theoretical knowledge with practical experience, contributing to the preparation of students capable of innovation and a deeper understanding of the city and its transformations.
