Join Museum Curatorial and Educational staff as we explore artwork as primary source material. Using several works in Monuments and Myths and other related pieces, participants will learn tools to investigate the narratives embedded within public art, from the power of patronage to the artistic choices around body language and symbolism. Approaches for facilitating art-based historical inquiry and culturally responsive discussions in the classroom will also be included. Although workshop content is highly applicable for Social Studies, all interested K-12 educators are welcome.
