Young People | 15-18 years | Trove Workshop IMMA

Lynn McGrane facilitates a workshop for teens aged 15 - 18 years old, between 13:00 and 16:00, on Wednesday 18th February 2015. The workshop is based on the critically acclaimed and hugely popular exhibition TROVE: Dorothy Cross selects from the National Collections Sponsored by BNP Paribas

Participants will be:

• taking a detailed look at a selection of works in the exhibition


• looking closely at how we visit an art gallery and discussing what methods and information we prefer to use when exploring an exhibition


• participating in a selection of making and writing activities in the gallery 


• finding out about the different roles and tasks involved in making an exhibition at a museum
  


• taking a quick look at the "Gallery Visit Question" in previous Leaving Cert papers and discussing how Trove could be used to answer this question
