A blast from the past exhibition showing “never before seen” art re-collected from our wonder years.

Art created by students in Secondary Curriculum in Art Education in response to semester-long inquiries around enduring ideas.

Books created by students in Art and the Child as a result of explorations of literacy and art making and connections made between works of art at the Georgia Museum of Art utilizing the re-appropriation and re-contextualization of images.

Visual essays created by Art Appreciation students representing explorations of elements and principles.

Also, join us in the art education studios, 3rd Floor, South Wing; where you can participate in a hands-on activity and enjoy music and snacks also excavated from our wonder years---Artinis (tiny martinis), Cheese Wiz on Sociables, animal crackers, gold fish…you get the idea.
