Fostering Connections with Interdisciplinary Education
MUSEUM EXPERIENCES: WORKSHOPS, TOURS, FESTIVALS, AND BEYOND
Connecting Learners to Museums and Cultural Institutions
Museums are stewards of cultural history, science, and art. These institutions reflect our everyday lived experiences and people and places long past and far away through objects and stories. With informal tours, hands-on activities, digital experiences and more, K-12 students, adults, and families can explore in a self-directed way with support.
MY PROJECTS
AMAZING ANATOMY
STEAM and History at The Morgan Library & Museum
Families were led together through the exhibition It's Alive! Frankenstein at 200 to explore the evolution of the story of the classic story from 1818 till present day, as well as the history of medical equipment and anatomical theory.
​
After, families learned how to use everyday materials to create anatomically correct hands with moving parts, and transformed these hands into ghoulish creations of their own!
THE DISCOVERY ROOM
Hands-on Sensory Science at the American Museum of Natural History
Families and classes are led through free choice and directed learning experiences in the areas of Biodiversity, Anthropology, and Paleontology using live animals, crafts, gallery exploration, and storytelling.
SUMMER STREETS 2019
Japan Society Partnership with the Department of Transportation
At the Arts & Culture Hub at the 2019 Summer Streets festival, visitors of all ages explored different kinds of traditional Japanese Fans and designed an uchiwa style one to stay cool and express their own style!
EXPERIENTIAL WORKSHOPS AND TOURS
Hands-on Experiences at the Rubin Museum of Art and Cathedral of St. John the Divine
Learners of all ages observe and discuss art and engage in interactive workshops to connect with new content and harness personal power in a process-centered approach to education.
