More Information About Museum Manners

Description

<p>Children are prepared for their museum experience through an      introduction to museum manners including: appropriate attire, voice level, pacing, self-guided tours, tours with docents (tour guides), and the no touch policy.  Once they have mastered their manners, they are ready to begin the specialized art appreciation tour which transforms the typically overwhelming museum experience into an entertaining artistic journey.  Children are engaged in interactive conversations regarding how to view art and what to look for with respect to both paintings and sculptures.  By engaging in one-on-one conversations, children discover how art plays an important part in their everyday lives.  Since one of the main museum rules is “no touching”, props are used instead.  Handling different size paintbrushes, examining a mold used to make a sculpture and manipulating a color wheel, are among the many tools that are used for each child to get an exciting hands-on experience.  By the end of the tour, children will have learned the elements of art, they will  understand what museum  manners are and why they are important, and they will look forward with anticipation to their next trip to the museum. </p>
