about
The Guide includes
Before Viewing and After Viewing questions as well as suggestions for hands-on activities. These suggestions are interdisciplinary and will support various disciplines including the Visual and Performing Arts, Language Arts, and Social Studies. Internet addresses where you can find additional images of artists' work and connections to the Online Lesson Library are included throughout the Guide. Designed for use at the secondary level, the content can be easily adapted for younger or older groups.

The Season Four Educators' Guide was written by Jessica Hamlin, Art:21 Education Consultant; Amanda Donnan, Art:21 Production Coordinator; Li Sumpter, New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York, NY; April Kim Tonin, Nightingale-Bamford School, New York, NY; Sasha Kopelowitz, White Plains Public Schools, White Plains, NY; Kristin Smith, Bronx Lab School, Bronx, NY; Elly Karp Wong, Trinity School, New York, NY; and Dina Helal, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY, in consultation with Tana Hargest, Director of Education and Public Programs, and the Art:21 National Education Advisory Council.

Art:21 Educators’ Guides are designed to be used in conjunction with the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series on PBS. Season Four can be purchased on DVD through PBS and Davis Publications. Educators who intend to show the series in their classrooms can also record "Art in the Twenty-First Century" off the air when it is broadcast by local PBS stations.

Check with your local station to learn when the series will air next in your area.
