Teacher Workshop: Creative Risk-Taking
HAMMER | 3 p.m., Hammer Museum
Join us for a free professional development program for 5th-12th grade teachers, administrators, and teaching artists.
How can art inspire us to be bold and original in our thinking, collaborate confidently with others, and take creative risks in the arts and other core subjects?
- Explore the groundbreaking conceptual art of Adrian Piper in the exhibition Adrian Piper: Concepts and Intuitions, 1965-2016 and the experimental drawings of writer and critic Victor Hugo in Stones to Stains: The Drawings of Victor Hugo
- Discover strategies for strengthening your students’ skills in creative and critical thinking through discussions about art
- Participate in visual artmaking and theater arts activities that stimulate creative and collaborative processes in ways that can be directly applied to lesson planning and teaching arts-based lessons with your students
- Gain tools that inspire you and your students to be flexible in your own thinking
