Workshop Information

Immerse yourself in one of our thematic workshop series to learn more about Identity and Community, Time and Place, or Connection and Environment. Each workshop series is divided into six sequential interactive sessions (1 hour 30 min. each) that will be hosted via Zoom Video Conferencing. Each session will feature a selection of new art from the JLS Art Collection and art-based activities and resources that foster thinking about the respective theme. Full details and learning objectives for each series are listed on the series registration page.

Workshop participants will receive priority consideration when the 2021-22 NW Art Project School Registration opens in the late spring of 2021. Workshop participants will be able to request a virtual art session from one of our wonderful JLS Art Docents.

2021 Workshop Series Themes

  • Series #1 - Identity and Community

  • Series #2 - Time and Place

  • Series #3 - Connection and Environment

We strongly believe that art can be an effective catalyst for nurturing engagement and connection. The inquiry-based activities strive to engage the whole person and equip individuals with strategies for navigating these challenging times by expressing their ideas creatively. While exploring art, we will reflect on big ideas and essential questions relevant to the series theme.

Clock Hours

Professional Development: Educators seeking Professional Development Clock Hours for a series must attend each of the six sessions. Nine Clock Hours will be granted for full participation. Each individual session is available for 1.5 Clock Hours. There will be optional out-of-class assignments for which participants may earn additional Clock Hours. (PSESD Pending Approval)
