In these workshops, K–12 teachers are immersed in one aspect of the Getty Museum's permanent collection and special exhibitions, while learning specific ways to incorporate works of art into their classroom teaching. Workshops include hands-on art-making activities and lectures, tours, or small-group discussions with Getty Museum staff.

The J. Paul Getty Museum, the Hammer Museum, and the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Los Angeles, host this innovative two-day program for secondary grade teachers inspired by the exhibitions on modern architecture on view at each institution.

Day One: Beyond the Museum Walls
Locations: MOCA and the Getty Center (Note: We will start and end at MOCA.)
Teachers discover Los Angeles architecture through tours of the exhibitions at MOCA and the Getty Center, in addition to a bus tour that explores architectural landmarks from downtown Los Angeles to the westside.

Day Two: Design in Practice
Location: The Hammer Museum
On the second day, teachers reconvene at the Hammer Museum to complete design projects, developed in partnership with the Chicago Architecture Foundation, that they can incorporate into their own curriculum. Results of the teachers' projects will be shared on the Discover Design Web site.

This free workshop for K–12 teachers focuses on the innovations that flourished in ancient Greek and Roman art, architecture, theater, poetry, philosophy, and science. Participants will hear from a curator, join in discussions in the galleries, and participate in hands-on activities. Teachers will receive materials for use in the classroom.

This program is at capacity.
