Teacher Workshop | Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture
Mon, Jan 26 / 9 am–1 pm
MAD invites NYC educators to join us for a workshop in connection with Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture.Following a curator-led tour of the exhibition, participants will create their own wearable artworks using repoussé, a decorative metalworking technique which we have adapted for our MADLab field trips. Artmaking will be facilitated by MAD Education staff who will model how we successfully teach this novel project with our grades 6–12 school groups. Join us for a fun day connecting with fellow teachers, experimenting with new artmaking techniques, and generating ideas to bring back to your classroom!
MAD will provide all art materials as well as coffee and morning refreshments.
New York State Educators will earn 4 CTLE hours.
We strive to make our programs accessible to all teachers. If you are experiencing financial hardship and do not teach at a NYC Title 1 school, please email the education department at education@madmuseum.org to request a fee waiver.
