I am a current member of the Toledo Museum of Art and volunteer with the Art Education classes at the Toledo Museum of Art.
Toledo Museum of Art's "The Great Art Escape".
During the Christmas and New Year holiday period 2014, the art museum encouraged visitors to participate in the Great Art Escape as they walked through the art galleries. Visitors were invited to sit and draw in front of art pieces or follow a step by step drawing instruction from art teachers placed throughout the museum. I had great fun working in the American Gallery teaching people how to draw landscapes.
Museum Art Classes Kindergarten through 3rd Grade Art Projects
For an independent study to complete my masters program, I observed and helped teachers with art after school classes and Saturday art classes at the Toledo Museum of Art. These programs cater to children of all ages and with special needs. The lesson plan strategy is similar to student teaching requirements. I am in the process of converting these current lesson plans to include the 2012 ODE Visual Art Content Standards. The lessons were taught by the excellent teachers of the Museum and I am honored to be a participant!
