The fourth graders and the multi-age 3/4 classes will visit the Art Institute of Chicago in October. The students will participate in a docent-led tour entitled "Stories in Art". They will be learning how to be an "Art Detective" asking questions like "What do I see?" and "What might happen next?" The answer to these questions will help them to understand what a piece of artwork is communicating to them.

As a retired art specialist, i was so impressed that your school makes the effort to go to The Chicago Art Institute. What an amazing resource. With all of the emphasis on sports these days I love the fact that my grandson was exposed to great Art. Thanks for the good work.
