CHECH Art Gallery: Single Visit
@ THE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS, HOUSTON
A docent-led gallery visit through the MFAH permanent collection. Students are divided into groups by grade level, from StoryTime in the galleries for the youngest to inquiry-based discussion for older students: learning to look at art, reading its symbols, and considering the mind of the artist.
