  • Learn to interpret and reflect life through creating art;
  • Experience an important window into different cultures and values;
  • Develop problem solving and observation skills;
  • Come to appreciate the value of art and history in our lives and society.

Learning through the Arts - This program references the artwork of African American masters, the program includes a menu of workshop options, including West African Dance and Drum, Colonial Dance, Historical Re-Enactments, Mlanjeni Magical Theatre, Storytelling & Folktales, and Hip-Hop Jazz Musicology. Pre and post workshop consultations with teachers ensure that all of our Learning through the Arts workshops consistently meet the museum’s standards and also fulfill teachers’ expectations.
