Discover how art can be a powerful tool for exploring and sharing identity. Art can be used to present identity as an intersectional experience where an intricate web of factors and forces inform who we are, how others see us, and how we engage with the world. In this interactive tour, students will view work by Jewish artists and consider universal questions of heritage, diaspora, memory, exclusion, and belonging, as they relate to identity. Through guided conversation and art making activities, students will also be prompted to find and share connections to their own identities and experiences. Tours will include a variety of artworks from our current and upcoming exhibitions.
A strong complement to Ethnic Studies curriculum, this tour addresses antisemitism, intersectionality, and immigration.
For students in grades 6–12; available by reservation Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
