Abstract

The development of students' creativity is one of the important objectives that should be achieved through learning activities in elementary schools, including art education. However, art learning practices in elementary schools are still frequently dominated by teacher-centered approaches, limiting students' opportunities to express ideas and explore their creative potential. This study aims to examine the implementation of project-based art learning as an approach to support the development of creativity among elementary school students. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach using a literature review method. Data were collected from scientific journals, research articles, and other relevant references discussing project-based learning, creativity, art education, and elementary education. The analysis was conducted through the stages of identification, classification, comparison, and synthesis of findings from previous studies. The results indicate that the application of Project Based Learning in art education contributes positively to students' creativity. In addition, the model supports active participation, communication skills, collaboration, and problem-solving abilities. Through project activities, students gain meaningful learning experiences by engaging directly in the process of creating artistic works. Based on these findings, project-based art learning can be considered an alternative instructional approach that supports creativity development among elementary school students.
