Creative Connection Lessons & Discovery Hunts
Help your group or team fall in love with and discover the beauty & magic of art museums!
Our Creative Connection Lessons help even those who have never set foot in an art museum find enjoyment in the experience. Rather than a traditional art history lecture or tour, we help attendees connect more deeply to the art by helping the to see it in new ways and use it as a way to relate to themselves and to one another. We explore in small groups in order to have curated conversations that bridge gaps in understanding and make the museum experience more memorable, impactful and personal.
Our Art-full Discovery Hunts can be added on to a Creative Connection Lesson, or be done separately. We encourage participants to bring their own interpretations and reactions to the work for a more customized experience. Groups can separate into teams for some friendly competition or partner up to create their own art inspired by what they experienced. All are customizable and can be held at art museums and institutions anywhere in NYC.
“A wonderful way of learning about the history, street art, art galleries, architecture, food vendors and more in a gem part of manhattan all while walking, talking, eating, listening, looking and feeling so alive in the most dynamic city of the world!”
In-House or Online Workshops
Creative thinking, defined as “the mental processes leading to a new invention, solution, or synthesis in any area,” is identified as one of the most valued and sought-after skills in employees — and yet, most people find it difficult to tap into their natural capacity for creative expression. Our 60-90 minute workshops help participants re-connect to their innate creativity , while also learning how to better understand and experience the arts
