Museums of History NSW | Education live stream: The art of place @MuseumsofHistoryNSW | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Reconciliation Week will see our first free Live Event for 2024 and will be streaming from the Museum of Sydney, which exists on the site of First Government House, on Gadigal land.
During this interactive and thought-provoking session your students will consider how we can understand and connect to place through art and how a place can mean different things, for different people.
We will investigate the museum’s place-based art and explore the current exhibition Coomaditchie: The Art of Place, created by the Coomaditchie United Aboriginal Corporation, with artworks that reflect life in and around the Coomaditchie Lagoon, near Wollongong.
Draw on historic records from the NSW State Archives, contemporary First Nations perspectives and archaeology to address the significance and the contested nature of the site.
Learn about a range of different techniques, which can be used to create art.
Finish the session with a creative arts activity – providing a framework to students so they can develop an artwork about a place and what it means to them.
