Welcome to Art Appreciation
Come and spend 20 minutes sharing images of great art with your child's class. Most of the images we provide for you can actually be seen at Chicago's own Art Institute. Indeed it has happened that first graders will tell you they have seen the original and you will get a fresh perspective from a seven year old on Pablo Picasso. The images we have for you to share come with background information and questions to ask to get the children talking and once they do you will be amazed at how simple it is to share the world of art with our children.
Current openings in the following classrooms, and please note that if your child is in one of these classrooms, they will not get to participate in this wonderful program without a volunteer to lead the discussion.
