Professional Development for High School Educators: Contemporary Art, Advocacy and History
Professional Development for High School Educators: Contemporary Art, Advocacy and History
How might contemporary art create a space for discussion about social issues? Educators are invited to join this workshop that will highlight strategies for fostering dialogue among students around historical and contemporary issues. In connection with Common Core and ELA standards, explore ways in which contemporary art can serve as informational text and can help students develop analytical, reflective, and research skills through a hands-on experience centered on the current exhibitions, Speaking of People: Ebony, Jet and Contemporary Art and Titus Kaphar: The Jerome Project.
The day will include a guided tour and discussion of the exhibition, teaching tools for the classroom, a talk with Senior Curatorial Assistant Hallie Ringle and an art-making workshop. Educators from all disciplines are encouraged to attend. Don't miss this great opportunity to learn about resources for educators, upcoming programs, and opportunities for your school!
Professional Development for High School Educators is FREE, and RSVP is required. Breakfast and refreshments will be served.
Educator programs are made possible thanks to a major grant from Wells Fargo.
