Lectures

An interactive workshop in which each participant takes on a character from the world of art: an artist, curator or collector. During the workshop we will learn about the many stops that a work of artwork can make on its way to the walls of the museum.

Can a work of art be a pile of candy? A lecture on the fundamental questions that should be asked in front of a work of art. A summary of Art History and an explanation of what makes a stack of candy considered a work of art.

A series of lectures on five works of art that you likely recognize but don't understand why they are well-known. We delve into the background is their history and the stories that explain their fame.

An experiential art workshop for children that invites participants to step into the world of art and museums through hands-on creation. During the workshop, we talk about what art is, what artists do, and what it means to create. We read The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds and explore the idea that there isn’t one “right” way to make art — only the courage to begin. Each child creates a personal artwork inspired by a theme, learning how to express ideas, emotions, and stories through color and material. The workshop concludes with the creation of a small exhibition, giving children the experience of presenting their work and discovering that they, too, can be artists — while learning how art is displayed and experienced in museums and galleries.
