Education Classrooms and Exhibition Galleries
Join us for an evening of discussion, curriculum connections, and artmaking inspired by the special exhibition Giant Steps: Artists and the 1960s. Artists were exploring new styles and new materials to create artworks during this decade. Tour this exhibition with School and Docent Programs Coordinator Lindsay Kranz and discover how to use these artworks as a catalyst for student-centered learning. After exploring core-curriculum connections, the workshop will conclude with hands-on art activities to support lesson plan development inspired by various works in the exhibition.
