EDUCATION
Education
for School Groups
The
New York City Department of Education's arts curriculum Blueprint
for Teaching and Learning in the Arts identifies Printmaking as
one of the seven arts that students are required to learn about. IPCNY
offers educational programs aligned with The Blueprint for
elementary, middle and high school classes, to help your students
expand their visual literacy skills.
For
the upcoming 2007-2008 school year, IPCNY is launching The Future
Printmakers' Workshop which seeks to engage students in the study
of prints and printmaking. The workshop will be tailored to the class
level of the students attending.
Highlights
of IPCNY's workshops are as follows:
- Brief introduction to the organization and to the New York printmaking community
- Exhibition tour
- "What
is a Print?", an explanation of printmaking techniques and practices
- Hands-on
art project
- Screening
of an excerpt from Lasting Impressions, a PBS program about Robert
Blackburn's Printmaking Workshop
- Print demonstration by a professional working artist
Lesson
plans can be adapted to specific art works on view. Images from the
current show are available in the Currently on View section of the website.
Teachers
are welcome to make an appointment to bring their students to the
IPCNY Gallery whenever an exhibition is on view, before or during
gallery hours (11 am - 6 pm)
Please
