This paper investigates the background and development of the “Atelier” space and the role of the “Atelierista” in Reggio Emilia’s early childhood education, a system practiced in a city in northern Italy. Reggio Emilia’s education system is well-known for its unique approach, in which children and educators learn together through daily dialogue and projects. Within this system, the Atelier is a particularly significant space that fosters children’s creativity through artistic expression. This study examines how the concept of the Atelier was formed and how the specialized role of the Atelierista̶an arttrained teacher̶emerged, drawing on the ideas of the educational leader Loris Malaguzzi (1920‒1994) and testimonies from educators involved at the time. The main findings of this study show that the “Atelier” is more than just a place for creative activities; it is a space where children and teachers explore and learn together. The term “Atelier” has its roots in the French art studios of 19th-century bohemian artists, who gathered to experiment and collaborate. In the late 1960s, Atelier activities began in Reggio Emilia preschools, and in 1970, with the opening of the Diana Preschool, this space was officially named the “Atelier.” This name symbolized a place for children to explore self-expression with various materials and represented an important educational innovation. Additionally, in the 1970s, educators with art backgrounds were formally hired under the new title of “Atelierista.” This move coincided with the introduction of male teachers and was intended to bring new perspectives to early childhood education. The title “Atelierista” reflects the philosophy of the Atelier as a place where educators and children engage as equals, learning together as co-researchers rather than in a traditional teacher‒student relationship. This study aims to revisit the history and significance of the Atelier and Atelierista, offering a fresh perspective for contemporary early childhood education.
