Creative
expression is one of our fundamental human attributes. How do people learn
about art, and what do they learn? What does an effective art experience look
like in a museum setting? How can museums better support the development of
aesthetic skills, contextual understanding, and personal connection? What do
families learn about art as they visit an art museum, or participate in arts
activities in informal settings? |
