Student Art Workshops

Observe, Interpret, and Create 

 

Free for Students and Educators 

Designed for Grades 3–12 

In-Person Student Art Workshops are now available! 

Student Art Workshops offer the chance for students to pair the processes of observing and interpreting art from the Museum galleries with the exploratory process of creating art in response through workshops led by our Art+Empathy Museum Educators.  

Students visit the Museum to: 

  • Observe and interpret art in the Museum galleries
  • Explore ideas and experiment with studio art processes and materials
  • Make connections between the artworks on display in the Museum and the art they individually create
  • Engage in creative expression and personal visual storytelling through art

Studio Lab: Nurturing Space Shadow Boxes 

During small group, docent-led tours, students will observe and interpret how artists convey the idea of nurturing through color, composition, texture, and symbolism to convey feelings of belonging and growth. In the studio, students will experiment with creating three-dimensional, mixed-media shadow boxes that explore their experiences and ideas around nurturing space. 

All supplies included. Maximum 36 students, 4 adults. 

One adult chaperone per 10 students required. Bus reimbursement scholarships are available. Please inquire through the below online form. 

  • Duration: 3 hours
  • Begins: 9:30 a.m.
  • Ends: 12:30 p.m.

Please note: Workshops must be requested online at least three weeks in advance. There is a maximum of two entries per school.
