LUAG Main & Lower Galleries
Join us for a three-part workshop series designed for teaching artists and educators who want to bring art and material culture into the classroom. Over three weeks, you’ll explore strategies for engaging students through inquiry-based gallery tours, inclusive lesson planning, hands-on artmaking, and interdisciplinary connections to science, social studies, language arts, and more. The final session will focus on program planning and advocacy for you and your students.
Participants will leave with adaptable frameworks, interdisciplinary activity ideas, and the confidence to create dynamic learning experiences grounded in the museum’s collection.
Session 1: Foundations of Museum Education
Session 2: Building a Lesson Plan from an Essential Question
Session 3: Reflective Practice and Workshop Mini-Lesson Critique
