Class with fans


Viewing the slides of art objects in the East Asian collection prior to seeing the objects in the DIA was an excellent preview for the trip to the museum and an opportunity to discuss Taoist symbols contained in the objects.

In the East Asian galleries, student viewed objects and learned more about East Asian cultures, philosophies, and art in a guided tour. Students asked many questions and had time to sketch in the galleries. Their enthusiasm was visible.
