Summer Teacher Institute: Art and Justice
July 6 and 7, 2017, 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Speed Art Museum
Join us for a two-day PD session to discover how artworks can be agents for social change. We’ll explore the Speed’s permanent collection, as well as the special exhibition Southern Accent: Seeking the American South in Contemporary Art, as we consider the ways in which artists have created work to reflect- and react against- the complex times in which we live. We will also discuss how authors, poets, and musicians use their voices as advocates for progress within their communities and around the world.
This is a two-day, intensive seminar. Registration includes both days, and teachers must attend both sessions in order to receive the full 10 hours of Professional Development credit.
Please note that membership will be verified. If you are not currently a member but would like to join, please visit http://www.speedmuseum.org/support/membership/.
