2025 Summer Institute for Visual Arts Teachers Saturday, July 12, 2025 8 a.m.-3 p.m.
July 12, 2025
Visual arts teachers are invited to a professional development opportunity to investigate artistic methods, techniques, processes, and materials. Educators can discover ways to bring this knowledge into the studio and explore ideas for including works from the MFAH art collections in the classroom.
Art-making and gallery sessions focus on the summer exhibitions Floating World: A.A.Murakami, Anicka Yi, and From India to the World: Textiles from the Parpia Collection. All studios and gallery experiences are designed to be adjusted as needed for teaching grade levels pre-K to 12. This workshop provides 6 hours of continuing professional education (CPE).
