Stories of the Land and Its People

Farnsworth Art Museum

Student Art Exhibition, May 21, 2017 to September 10, 2017 in the Crosman Gallery

Stories is a project-based, arts-integrated learning experience at the Farnsworth Art Museum.  Museum educators, classroom teachers, students, and teaching artists collaborate to explore curricular standards though inquiry-based learning in the classroom, at the museum, and during field trips into our local communities.

This exhibition highlights student learning and artwork from this yearlong partnership. Thanks to the Farnsworth Art Museum for  providing the following resources that provide a clear picture of their program.
