Museum 101: Art Exposure for Underserved Youth

Posted on August 8, 2008

Inspired by a recent re-evaluation of the importance of arts learning by area educational and cultural institutions, the Nasher Sculpture Center created a program for youth underexposed to museums and the arts called Museum 101. This program brings middle and high school students from the greater Dallas area to the Nasher for an in-depth, personally meaningful experience with the intersecting worlds of art and new media technology. This minigrant provided the necessary tools to allow participants of Museum 101 to document their experiences, and for Nasher staff to transform these creations into an online archive and program showcase.
