This exhibition showcased art by students
participating in Learning Through
Art (LTA), an educational program of
the Guggenheim Museum. LTA places
professional teaching artists in public elementary
schools in New York, where they
collaborate with teachers to develop art
projects that teach students art skills and
techniques while exploring themes related
to the school curriculum. The program
encourages curiosity, critical thinking,
and ongoing collaborative investigation.
