  • Introduction to the Pack
    INTRODUCTION TO THE PACK Wales Millennium Centre will be a landmark centre for the performing arts staging musicals, opera, ballet and dance. International festivals, workshops, tours and visiting art exhibitions will take place against the background of a mixed retail setting. When the Centre opens in 2004 on Cardiff Bay waterfront it will stand alongside the most culturally outstanding arts venues in Europe. The building makes a strong cultural statement for Wales and demonstrates the nation’s new-found confidence as a player in Europe and on a world stage. The design concepts are inspired by the landscape and industrial heritage of Wales – the layered strata of sea cliffs – the multi-coloured slate of North Wales - the texture and colour of steel, and the simple beauty of Welsh hardwoods. Wales Millennium Centre will be a landmark building and will become a national icon. Aim of education pack To utilise the exciting opportunity of the construction of the Wales Millennium Centre to develop resources to enhance educational provision in Wales and ensure that all our young people, their teachers and parents are aware of the arrival of this unique international arts centre in Cardiff Bay. Concept A “think tank” was organised in November 2001, involving teachers and education advisers from all over Wales with the architects and WMC personnel responsible for the construction of the Centre. The group agreed on two guiding principles: • The product should consist of a box of exciting resources, supported by suggested activities for teachers to use with a wide range of pupils. The suggestions would be provided to stimulate further activity and not meant to be in any way prescriptive.
