What makes a community successful? Join Museum Educators at the New Britain Museum of American Art to answer this question, using visual analysis to identify the differences between city life and country life in a variety of artworks. Through group discussion, students will learn how to look for clues to back up their interpretations.
After an interactive tour, the class will visit the art studio to discuss the sights and sounds of Hartford while creating original 3D pop-up "cityscape" collages out of construction paper, color sticks, and crayons. |
