STUDIO PROJECT 1: WHOSE STORY? STORYBOARDS //
SUITABLE FOR GRADES 3+
COLLABORATION // ILLUSTRATION // STORYTELLING // WRITING // DRAWING // EMPATHY

In this workshop, we consider how artists in the exhibition interpret the stories of other people and represent their voices through art. Students will write a short story about one of their own experiences and those stories will be interpreted by classmates as storyboards.

STUDIO PROJECT 2: STORIES THROUGH OUR EYES //
SUITABLE FOR ALL GRADES
CREATIVE STORYTELLING // CURRENT EVENTS // DRAWING // WATERCOLOUR PAINTING // EMBELLISHMENT

In this workshop, we consider a few of the visual elements and storytelling themes in the exhibition. Students will be asked to think of an experience to share as a story through the symbol of the eye and other images. Students will use drawing, watercolour paints, and gold embellishments to create their works.
