Travelling Art Carts (National Gallery Singapore)
Featuring 16 different themes, the Travelling Art Carts are mobile art education stations that introduce lives from the past and present through the eyes of Singapore and Southeast Asian artists, offering fun and interactive activities that foster creativity and cultivate curiosity in children.
Programme Details
Each art cart features at least one artwork from the National Collection. Find out more about the details of each art cart here: https://www.nationalgallery.sg/sg/en/about/our-initiatives-and-collaborations/outreach-efforts.html (opens in new tab) Each art cart is available for a 2-week loan at $500 to cover transport costs for delivery and collection of the art cart.
Programme Learning Objectives
Each art cart is intended to be a self-guided learning experience but it also comes with a learning resource pack that teachers can use to support students’ learning of the featured artwork using the “See, Think, Wonder” Thinking Routine. Learning Objectives: • Students will have opportunities to carefully observe, describe and interpret artworks. • Students will gather visual clues to create stories inspired by the artworks, using their imagination and personal experience to develop their own narratives. They will observe settings and characters, and consider the historical and cultural context in which the works were created. • Students will be guided to develop personal interpretations of the artworks and reflect on whether the artists were inspired by imagination, real-life experiences or the environments and places in which they lived.
