Renaissance Art in the Italian Classroom 101

Consider this your crash course in Renaissance art. Once we have explored the key principles of Renaissance drawing, painting, and sculpture, and the societal values and ideals of the period, we will apply that knowledge to pedagogy. Together we will explore how to build mini-units of work around Renaissance art, play with grammar and language, and how to imbed cross-curricular literacy and numeracy content. Please note: this is not a practical art workshop.

SUITED TO: All levels.

Cost: nil.
