Education
Ethics of Looking: Whitney Biennial 2019
Saturdays, 5 pm
These drop-in programs provide Museum visitors with an opportunity to discuss the complexities and challenges of works on view. Artworks in this year’s Biennial offer a profound consideration of race, gender, and equity, and explore both the vulnerability of the body and the meaning of community. After seeing the exhibition, please join us to explore its themes and ideas in depth by engaging with a Joan Tisch Teaching Fellow in an open discussion about the important issues raised.
Free with Museum admission.
Open Studio for Teens: Summer Sessions
Select Fridays, 1:30–4 pm
Grab your friends and get creative! New York City teens are invited to a free drop-in art-making program at the Whitney on most Fridays. Bring your works-in-progress or create something entirely new. All supplies are provided and no previous art experience is required—everyone is welcome.
Free for teens.
The Laurie M. Tisch Education Center
For the first time in its history, the Whitney Museum has a dedicated space for education with the opening of the Laurie M. Tisch Education Center. Centrally located on the Museum’s Third Floor and adjacent to the Susan and John Hess Family Theater, the Education Center provides opportunities for museum educators to work in innovative ways, offering audiences drop-in programming, hands-on learning, and in-depth and interdisciplinary programming. The Laurie M. Tisch Education Center is a hub where visitors can engage with artists and enliven and enrich their museum experience.
