Oliewenhuis Art Museum's latest learning experience invites pupils to learn through art

Loading player...
Learning through art: The Museum as classroom was curated by the Education Officer at Oliewenhuis Art Museum, Yolanda de Kock with a special focus on the Grade 10 – 12 Visual Arts curriculums. Artworks were handpicked to optimise the learning experience for learners, and they now have the luxury to view artworks that are discussed in the classroom, not only see it in the handbook. The art museum is now the classroom, accessible for teachers and learners to view engage and analyse these artworks. She joins Mid-Morning Magic’s Yolanda Maartens in the OFM Art Beat to talk about this wonderful opportunity to get up close to some of the museum’s most loved pieces.
