August-June
Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a museum or art gallery? Students will spend the day with the Arts Educators learning the ins and outs of working at an art gallery and trying their own hand at collaborating, creating, curating, and designing art exhibits. Programs in the Arts Appreciation Series encourage students to practice their communication skills, particularly oral communication, through intentional opportunities for speaking about and engaging with the arts and each other. This program is ideal for a 3-4 hour program.
All multigrade program offerings will be supported by grade-level appropriate standards, available to share upon request.
