K–12 Educator Saturday Workshop: Closely Looking at Landscapes

Explore the intersections of art and nature by closely looking at landscapes. Practice engagement strategies—framed by our See-Think-Do learning framework—that encourage your students to think about how the natural world influences artists, just like our docents do in our guided school programs! Learn to use close-looking tools like a viewfinder and leave with discussion questions and adaptable classroom prompts for drawing, writing, and movement.

Key Details
