National Museum of Asian Art
Limited Capacity seats available
Feedback Survey
 Join the National Museum of Asian Art for an afternoon exploring art and art-making inspired by the exhibition, Into the Waters with Senju and Bingyi: Two Contemporary Paintings. THrough conversation, close looking, thinking routines, and hands-on ink-painting, participants will explore how two contemporary Asian artists blend traditional techniques with innovative practices to express the movement, power, and beauty of water. As we engage directly with ink painting processes, teachers will reflect on personal connections with water and nature. Together, we will brainstorm strategies for bringing inquiry-based artmaking and visible thinking into your classroom. 

Participants will meet at the Moongate Cafe in the East Building, Sackler Pavilion accessible through the Enid A. Haupt Garden.
