Join Beth Evans and Irina Rubenstein, educators from the National Portrait Gallery, to learn how to use portraiture, movement, and art-making to engage young learners with art, history, and more. In this interactive session, presenters will model transferable techniques and discuss strategies for adaptation into different learning environments. Participants will leave with ready-to-use activities, digital museum resources, and a deeper understanding of free online programs to use with young learners in and out of the classroom.
This interactive webinar is part of “Cultivating Learning,” a professional development webinar series focusing on techniques to use digital museum resources for learning. Check out “Cultivating Learning” and other Smithsonian Learning Lab webinars: https://learninglab.si.edu/help
