Visit the museum with your class from a distance! Designed to cultivate critical thinking, visual literacy, and collaborative discourse, these short, virtual “field trips” will introduce students to the diverse arts and ideas of Puget Sound region contemporary artists and spark interest in further creative exploration.
These sessions combine art discussion, games, and art activities, as well as opportunities to connect with peers. A fun and interactive way to build creative skills, students will walk away feeling more empowered to understand our visual world.
