3. Research spaces to constantly improve the quality of the pedagogical and the aesthetic skills:

Founded on a humanistic vision of art and learning, ATH creates an environment where pleasure and tolerance are essential while cultivating the rigour necessary for the act of creation.
"That is art: to give all you have. And what have you?
Your life - nothing more. And to give life means to feel life throughout your whole being."
