See and Tell

Grades K-6: English Language Arts

This program takes a closer look at the connection between visual and language arts. Students will discover how artists, like writers, use concepts like character, setting, plot, and sequence to create a narrative in works of art. Students will apply what they learn to create a zine to tell their own visual story.

Robert S. Duncanson’s Cincinnati

Grades K-12: Social Studies, Fine Arts

This program focuses on the story of the first African American artist to achieve international prominence: Robert S. Duncanson. Students will learn Duncanson’s personal story, what his life was like in Cincinnati during the Civil War era, and how the 150-year-old murals painted on the walls of the foyer at the Taft played a part in his success. Students will create their own imaginative landscape cyanotype (sun print) inspired by Duncanson. 

*Eligibility is defined as 50 percent or more students receiving free lunch.
