Description of Tour Packages

Get Acquainted (Pre-School)- This program is designed especially for preschool groups with students ages three to five. Young children are introduced to art concepts through developmentally appropriate activities. During the forty-minute program, children will have a picture book read to them in the galleries, look at original art works and make an art project to take home. (Art Activity is an additional $2 per student) Learning Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.3

Learning to Look (K-2)- Young students are encouraged to use their imagination while learning to see more when looking at art. Questions and comparisons guide children to verbally express their curiosity about art. Viewing both folk art and fine art, this program asks the young student to describe what they see and how they feel about it. Searching activities are geared toward increasing observational skills. Learning Standards 1.1, 1.4, 3.1, 3.2

General (Grades 1-12)- This tour provides a general overview of the Museum and its current exhibitions and is ideal for a first time visit. A brief history of the Museum and its founders, Fred W. Noyes, Jr. and Ethel M. Noyes is included. Students will be introduced to ways of examining and interpreting works of art during their visit to all four galleries. Learning Standards 1.1, 3.2

Taking Art Apart (Grades 4-8)- The visual elements (line, shape, color, light, value, texture and space) are presented as the ingredients available to an artist when making a work of art. It is the way in which the artist selects and arranges these visual elements that creates the composition and establishes the mood. The styles of realism, abstraction and non-representational art will be identified and clarified. Learning Standards 1.1, 1.4

Folk Art (Grades 4-12)- Local culture is discussed in relationship to folk art and, specifically, decoy carvings. This tour suggests that art can be considered a type of visual history for gaining insight to past lifestyles. Discussion will include topics such as: the impact that the cycle of the seasons has on people and their art, bird migration and the evolution of the practical decoy into a decorative art form. Learning Standards 1.5, 6.2, 6.3

The Artist’s Language (Grades 6-12)- Gaining and refining a vocabulary for discussing art can be fun. This in-depth program defines and explores technical terms, stylistic trends and the process of art criticism. The four phases of art criticism: description, analysis, interpretation, judgment will be discussed in an interactive manner. Students will receive a vocabulary list and participate in a brief gallery project. Learning Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4
