Exploring Latin America: Past and Present

This workshop follows a timeline of cultural and artistic changes as students discover the implications of Columbus’ 1492 voyage. Students will explore the Pre-Columbian, Spanish Colonial, Folk Art and Contemporary art galleries in our Latin American Wing and conclude the trip with a related art project.
