Tips to engage with the art:
-
To encourage thinking and group discussion ask questions such as:
- What do you see?
- What does it remind you of?
- How does it make you feel?
-
Gain perspective by looking at the artworks from all angles:
- Crouch or lie down
- Stand far away
- Look up close
- Circle around
- Use your body to imitate the shapes of artworks.
- Invent a title for an artwork– then check out what the artist calls it at the nearby label.
- Check out a Family Activity Kit at the Museum Front Desk to explore through activities, questions, and materials.
- Draw what you see in the Museum or Sculpture Park–sketchbooks are definitely allowed!
- Visit the Process Gallery on the Museum 3rd floor or The Lab on the Museum 4th floor, interactive spaces where kids and adults can enjoy and learn together.
-
Continue the conversation and exploration in the car and at home:
- What artwork or area did you like the most?
- What new art words did you learn?
- What can you make in your house or yard inspired by the art you have seen?
- What new art materials can you find at home to use?
