Join Hirshhorn Museum educators for an active exploration of how contemporary art can help students better understand their own identities. We’ll model teaching strategies for close looking, conversation, storytelling, and playful art-making with We Speak: The Art of Becoming, a series of free online education resources featuring the art and stories of women and femme artists, with a special focus on the life and work of Senga Nengudi, a soft sculpture and performance artist. Participants will leave with ready-to-use lesson plans and resources, designed for classroom and at-home use, that will inspire future generations of artists, makers, and creative problem solvers. Come with materials that stretch, knot, and fill!

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
