Lincoln Center Arts in Education program
May 12, 2010Spaces still available – July 26-30
During the week of July 26-30, the Department of Education is partnering with the Farnsworth Art Museum in Rockland. The Farnsworth will serve as the host site for New York City’s Lincoln Center Institute’s International Educator Workshop. Designed for K-12 teachers, this workshop helps teachers discover how to unlock imaginative learning through engaging with works of art. Throughout the week, participants will attend theater performances by Figures of Speech Theatre and visit the Farnsworth Museum to see art works by artist Louise Nevelson, and participate in hands-on workshops focused on these works of art. Led by three teaching artists from Lincoln Center Institute, this workshop is a complete, in-depth experience in teaching and learning through imagination and the arts. Scholarships to attend the workshop are being offered by the Farnsworth to any full-time Maine teacher. For more information, please contact Denise Mitchell at dmitchell@farnsworthmuseum.org, tel. 596-6457 ext. 103.
