Introduction To Visual Art Blueprint Professional Development
The Office of the Arts and Special Projects provides citywide
professional development in the implementation of the Blueprint
for Teaching and Learning in the Arts. Central and regional professional
development sessions are led by master teachers—outstanding
public school arts teachers identified by the DOE—and teaching
artists—professional artists from local cultural organizations.
During these sessions, teachers explore the five Blueprint strands
of arts education and learn strategies for lesson plan building
and engaging children in the arts. Teachers participate in hands-on
projects, allowing them to directly apply the lessons learned
at training sessions to their classrooms.

Since its inception, The Metropolitan Museum of Art has had as one of its chief missions, the education and enlightenment of New York City's public school students. What does this look like beyond the 2 or 3 hour field trip? This short course explores the resources of the Museum and how they may be used to engage students in thinking critically about art making, art history and museum practice. Participants will be actively engaged in the galleries and in the Uris Center for Education. All will receive resources from The Metropolitan Museum of Art and from the Office of Arts and Special Projects. This series is open to visual arts teachers working with grades 5 to 12, and to administrators.
