The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes 

but in having new eyes. --Marcel Proust

• Rediscover art in museums through The Museum Experience while actively advancing visual literacy, artistic literacy, and critical thinking skills for PK-12 classroom applications;
• Study diverse perspectives for understanding how the Form+Theme+Context (FTC) of works of art and artifacts shape layers of meaning;
• Use interdisciplinary research and pedagogy to engage in object-specific strategies that deepen learners’ engagement within classroom and museum settings;
• Experience object-specific strategies, visual journaling, interactive discussion of readings, and hands-on learning to complement your learning experiences.
