About the Event
ART THROUGH CULTURE | TEACHERS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
The National Gallery of Australia's Art Through Culture principles are the Learning teams’ contribution to the Gallery's First Nations First commitment. We consider the principles in the work we do to ensure all engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art and artists is always respectful. Led by our First Nations educators Maggie-Jean Douglas and Noah Watson this teacher professional learning experience will share the Art Through Culture principles with participants and demonstrate practical examples engaging with works of art from touring exhibition Ceremony. Participants will then be invited to discuss and workshop how they can take the principles back into their own learning environments.
Schedule:
9am - 10am: Introduction to the Art through Culture principles
10am - 10.20am: Morning tea
10.20am - 12pm: National Gallery Staff demonstrate the principles in action with art works from Ceremony
