Arts & Cultural Spaces are Re-Opening
As COVID-19 restrictions ease, arts and cultural spaces are inviting the public to visit. Beyond just looking at exhibits, most museums encourage visitors to be curious and wonder about what they’re seeing. These inquiry-based approaches include Visual Thinking Strategies (https://vtshome.org) and Artful Thinking by Project Zero (http://pzartfulthinking.org). Research supports that even a one-time visit to a museum benefits students’ well-being in three capacities: creative thinking, empathy and critical thinking. If an in-person visit is not possible, many museums have online resources. Take a look at the possibilities! Please let us know if there are other museums not listed here that you’d recommend.
